Music

Getting involved with band, orchestra or choir at Huntley Middle School (HMS) allows students to explore the exciting world of music. They learn how to play an instrument while making new friends and gaining communication and teamwork skills. Students also get to attend and perform at concerts, music festivals and other activities.

In addition to their band, orchestra and/or choir class, students can participate in jazz ensemble, secondary instrument lab and/or chamber orchestra. Learn more about these and other clubs and organizations.
