Marching and Concert Band
The Sumiton Christian Band has two main aspects for students in grades 7th - 12th: the Marching Band, which meets during the fall semester; and the Wind Ensemble, which meet during the end of the fall semester until the end of the spring semester.
The Marching Band performs at halftime shows throughout the football season as well as select parades and contests. Also included in the marching band are the auxiliary units: Color Guard, Dance Team and Majorette who audition each spring prior to the next marching season.
The Wind Ensemble performs at the Veteran's Day concert, Christmas concert, a winter concert in the early months of the spring semester, as well as a late spring concert. Additionally, the Wind Ensemble band performs at the AISA concert band contest annually and takes an annual spring trip.
For students wanting to begin studying an instrument, SCS offers a beginning band class to all interested students beginning in the 6th grade.

We know that you want the best for your student - that's why you are here - and that private school is an investment for your child. Understanding this, we have a partnership with local music stores to provide the highest quality instrument for your student at a reduced cost. In addition, as a way of showing appreciation to you and your children, all band students who wish to benefit from additional private instruction receive it at no cost. - Director
