Roosevelt is the ONLY Junior High in Peoria Public Schools
with a Marching Band Program!
Roosevelt offers a full array of opportunities for children to express themselves through music within the band program.
After a student has at least two years experience on a specific instrument, they then have the opportunity to experience Roosevelt Band at is fullest. Roosevelt is the only Junior High in District 150 that has a marching band program for students to participate in. Students learn various Marching fundamentals, memorize music, and march in about three to four different parades throughout the fall season. Roosevelt's 7th and 8th grade concert band also gives many concerts in the community and at school. We also participate in the IGSMA District Contest, and have numerous students perform for Solo and Ensemble Contest.
