EXPANDING HOW STUDENTS LEARN MUSIC
We have the Salmon Days Parade and then a home football game where we are also hosting Tillicum and Tyee Band students. We are having pizza for lunch, provided by our fantastic NBPA, buy we are accepting donations to help with the cost (suggested $5). To donate, click on this link and select “other” and enter the amount you wish to donate. Thanks in advance for helping out with this!
We could use some more volunteers for the football game – here is the online sign-up form.
The next NBPA meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, Oct. 14 at 7 PM in the Black Box Theater (temporary band space) at Newport.

The Newport Band Program is made up of hundreds of talented, motivated and energetic high school students. The program has a long running tradition of producing highly refined and gifted performing musicians. Band students at Newport are given the amazing opportunity to play and compete in a variety of quality ensembles, receive excellent instruction, perform in a variety of unique and exciting venues and represent their community all across the country.
Students who participate in our program are automatically inducted into the fantastic Newport Marching Band as well as our grade-level based large ensemble classrooms. In addition, students can audition for our exciting jazz program. What’s more, students have the chance to perform at local events, including school basketball games, assemblies, solo and ensemble festivals, and much more.
For our student athletes, we make it easy to be both athletic and musical, by accommodating practice and game schedules as much as possible to allow for the broadest participation.
The Newport Jazz Band program is well-known regionally, nationally and internationally.
The band is made up of Concert Band, Symphonic Band, and Wind Ensemble
All percussionists (grades 9, 10, 11, and 12) at Newport High School enroll in our Percussion Ensemble.
