​Alpharetta High School Raider Band

​One of our own Webb Bridge Middle School past band students and current senior at Alpharetta High School has earned the title of Class of 2026 Valedictorian - congratulations to WBMS Band alum and AHS Band student Maddie Good!

​Congrats to these AHS Band Groups!

The Alpharetta Indoor Percussion premiered at South Forsyth and pulled off a tight 1st place finish to start their season! 

• Indoor Percussion is a great group that WBMS Band Students can participate in when they get to the AHS Band Program.
• The Alpharetta Cadets Winterguard premiered their 2026 program at Denmark High School and earned first place! The AHS Cadets Winterguard includes some of our very own band students! Congratulations!
• The Alpharetta Winterguard also had great success in their first competition in an extremely hard division with improving their points by nearly 10 points!

Way to Go Raiders!

Your child is very lucky to get to participate in such strong programs within the Alpharetta High School Band Program.

Encourage Practicing

​​It is necessary that the students practice at home as often as they can (we recommend every day for 15 minutes outside of class time) to ensure proper development during 6th Grade. This is much more beneficial than practicing once a week or only on the weekends as this is not nearly enough time to develop. Frequency (every day) of practice is most important! Please remember that the band room is open every morning starting at 8AM for open practice - students are strongly encouraged to come down to practice!

As always, please let us know if you have any questions or concerns!

Sincerely,

Mr. Stroud and Mr. Stallings, WBMS Band Directors
​Mr. Durden, WBMS Assistant Band Director
