Petal Band |
|
| The Petal High School Band is the largest organization
in the Petal School District comprised of approximately
160 students in grades 9-12. During the fall, these
students are a part of the All-Superior PHS Marching
Band. The band performs at football games and makes
appearances at parades and community events as well
as competitions throughout the South. During the
winter and spring, the band is divided into two
performing ensembles that include the PHS Symphonic
and Concert Bands. The Petal Band program now also
offers Winter performing opportunities with the
Indoor Visual Ensemble and the Indoor Percussion
Theatre. All of these groups have received continuous
superior ratings in state and regional competitions.
