Visual & Performing Arts
Middle School
Performing Arts educators in the Brandywine School District are passionate about introducing students to the rhythms and music of our world. Our lessons and curriculum reflect standards that make sure that students receive an engaging and well-rounded musical education. At the middle school level, BSD offers general music classes and the opportunity to join a performance ensemble like band or chorus. These ensembles perform concerts in the evening for a live audience 2-3 times per school year as well as participate in special events during the school day. Beginning in 7th grade, students can audition for All-State ensembles. Our middle school ensembles travel and perform in music competitions. At these festivals, students receive feedback from accredited college/university professors or other professional musicians on their performances. Our performing arts departments also present live musical theater experiences for students each year.
