Welcome to Band! My name is Mr. Wood. I have taught band for 13 years and am excited to work with you this year. In band you will learn how to master a musical instrument and play together with your friends, but band is so much more! You get to be part of something that's bigger than yourself, you get to feel a sense of ownership of something at school, you get to have fun, and you get to participate in an art form that helps us navigate the human experience!
