CHS Band

Post/News related to the Carrollton High School Band and possibly some 8th grade band students that may be participating in high school band events.

Another Outstanding Competition Performance!

The Trojan Band delivered another unforgettable week of performances! 🎉 At Saturday’s competition, we earned 2nd in Class AAAAA and Overall in Band & Drum Majors, and 1st in Class AAAAA and Overall in Colorguard & Percussion — with only .66 points separating us from 1st. While judges’ opinions differ, what truly matters is the energy you shared, the memories you created, and the pride you brought to Carrollton.

This week also included a powerful performance at the Carroll County Marching Exhibition, a road trip to Westlake HS where we cheered on our 7–0 Trojan Football Team, and the incredible support of our parents who make it all possible. Now, we turn our focus to Homecoming Week — pep rallies, parade, football, alumni, and plenty of Trojan spirit — before heading into Legacy of Champions!

Grand Champions at Ring of Fire!

Our Trojans are now 6-0 after a big win against the reigning Alabama state 6A Football Champions, Parker HS from Birmingham. We had a great time hosting our 8th graders on Friday making the band 265 members strong! Thank you to Ms. Menendez, all of the 8th graders, and our INCREDIBLE booster parents who helped us with the logistics of hosting this many extra band students. Our leadership created goody bags, parents ordered and served pizzas and a beautiful cake, Transportation provided a charter bus – it was an awesome evening! This weekend we have our first competition at Sonoraville HS. Check out the post for more information! Go Trojans!
