Our philosophy is to provide every student with an opportunity to transfer their musical knowledge obtained from the general music classes offered at the elementary and intermediate schools and apply it to an instrument. We strive to prepare these students to be young musicians so that when they leave Lincoln Junior High to join the Trojan Band they may have the skills necessary to be a successful viable member of the band and thereby their community. We believe that students should not be limited in their achievements and will therefore hold them to high expectations of rehearsal etiquette and sensitivity to music. It is my great pleasure and honor to be able to work with you and we are looking forward to a year full of hard work and fun!
