The NAHS band program exposes the students to a wide variety of musical experiences including marching band,  symphonic band, jazz band, and theatre orchestra. Students perform in local concerts, musicals, and half-time shows.  Students participate in both regional and state festivals, honor bands and clinics.

Our Philosophy . . .
All Superior:  Every Way, Every Day

It is our goal to create a positive environment for students to develop their musical skills. We expect every student who is a part of our band family to have a positive attitude and to be a part of our mission.
