The Falmouth Band Parents Association exists to provide support for the members of the Falmouth Public Schools Band - both students and their families. It allows for band members and their families to communicate with the band director and each other.

Annual fundraisers are held to assist the program needs. Our organization is always looking for new fundraising ideas, grant ideas, donations and benefactors.

Please email Steven Edwards at sedwards@falmouth.k12.ma.us should you have any questions regarding courses.

Hello All FHS Band Students and Families,
You are invited to the annual FHS Band Banquet and Awards Night at Morse Pond School at 6pm on Friday, May 25th. 
This is always a fun evening, with great food and awards for the students.  It is a great opportunity to meet other band parents as well!
As in past years, we ask that all participating students bring along a delicious food item.  To keep it "diverse" we ask that you follow the chart below:

FRESHMEN & SOPHOMORES:  Dinner Entrees
JUNIORS:  Salads and Side Dishes
SENIORS: Desserts

A sign up sheet will be posted in the band room until May 18th.  Please write your name, email, and delicious food item you plan to bring if you will attend.  If you are not exactly sure what you are bringing that's OK!!

Falmouth Town Band is BACK for the Summer!

Rehearsals have started and meet on Thursday nights in the FHS Band Rm. 7:30-9pm

Directed by LaVada Studley the Town Band prepares for weekly concerts at the Falmouth Band Shell on Thursday nights thought he summer 7pm-9pm.

This is a GREAT way to keep those playing skills you have acquired or learn some NEW ones. If you are an adult and haven't played in a while, dust off that old case, buy some new reeds or unstick those valves, thow that old ax in the car and get playing again. Cool

 

  • Falmouth Town Band is Community service
  • Perform with friends and make new ones
  • Improve sight-reading for future auditions and ensemble performance

 

We understand that you may miss a concert or two but try to make as many rehearsals and concerts as you can.

 

See you there!
