Band & Chorus
The Manchester-Shortsville Central School District has a proud legacy of delivering top-tier music education to students across grades K-12. Through a diverse range of activities including classroom teaching, community performances, guest conductor engagements, and collaboration with the New York State School Music Association (NYSSMA), we ensure a well-rounded musical experience for all.
Band and chorus programs are available at all levels—elementary, middle, and high school—featuring select groups for advanced students. Our committed music instructors provide tailored instruction, including one-on-one sessions and small group ensemble work.
Red Jacket students consistently shine at prestigious events such as Area All-State, All-County, and NYSSMA festivals, as well as local concerts, parades, and festivals. Our band has even graced stages at Disney World and beyond. With many students participating in both band and chorus, our music program fosters a culture of excellence and camaraderie.
