Connect with Excellence is our theme for the year.

The quality of our program depends on the quality of our connections—to the music, to the work, and to one another. This year, we’re strengthening all three.

Two delays, one win, and a halftime performance from the band that was worth the wait. We love Friday Night Lights!

Last Friday, we wrapped up an incredible Band Camp with our Exhibition Performance!

We are so proud of our students and all they accomplished over the past two weeks. Their hard work, dedication, and growth have laid the foundation for an exciting season ahead.

Thank you to our amazing band camp staff, the Villa Rica Band Boosters, our families, volunteers, and everyone who came out to support us. Your countless hours of service, encouragement, and generosity made Band Camp a tremendous success. A special thank you to our new principal, Mr. Alford, and our Fine Arts Coordinator, Neil Ruby, for attending and supporting the Villa Rica High School Band.

We’re just getting started. Go Wildcats! 🐾
