Highland School of Technology is known for its long-standing tradition and commitment to academic excellence. Now, the school’s band program is committed to establishing a tradition of its own.
For the first time since Highland opened in 2000, the band is fielding a halftime marching show during home football games. It’s a sign that the band program is growing under director Noah Williams’ leadership.
Williams, who took over as director in 2022, is working to give Highland students a marching band experience that is similar to other high schools. “It has been a goal of mine to have a full marching band program here,” said Williams. “When the students expressed an interest in learning and performing a halftime show this year, I told them, ‘Let’s do it.’”
