Extracurriculars

The Boardman Spartan Marching Band

Over the years, Boardman High School's marching band has become not only a symbol for the school, but a symbol within the state. It is a nationally recognized band, frequently taking trips to events such as the Rose Bowl, professional football games, and the Indy 500. [6] [7] [8] Every year the band is invited on several highly recognized trips, usually accepting between one and two invites. During the winter, the band splits into separate bands: wind ensemble (the highest performance level), symphonic band, concert band and freshman band (consisting of a majority of all incoming freshmen, with the exception of those in jazz or orchestra).

Music

In 2006, the music department was selected a "Grammy Signature School" and received a $1,000 award. The music department was one of 16 schools selected for this honor. [9] The department consists of award-winning choral, band, and orchestra departments.

When the Performing Arts Center was added to the high school in 2000, they moved the main program to the high school. Since the year 2000, the BSTN program has become an award winning curriculum. [13] They have also branched to their new Spartan Stadium (2015) running the Jumbo Tron and livestreams.

[14] The program is currently directed by Joe Hollabaugh. [15]
