About The Program
EYES WITH PRIDE!
The band program in Dripping Springs ISD is about more than just music and marching, although DSISD bands at all levels consistently deliver performances of the highest caliber and earn top ratings and enthusiastic praise from contest judges. Band students on the whole tend to be high achievers in academics and other extracurricular undertakings. The self-discipline and pride in excellence instilled by the band program foster habits of excellence and success that students carry with them outside of the band hall and into their lives beyond school.Tiger Band & Color Guard Website
