The mission of the Navarro High School Band program is to cultivate in each student a lifelong love of music while continually raising our standards of excellence through common goals, unified efforts, mutual respect, and a tradition of success.

Marching Band

The Marching Band consists of Woodwinds, Brass, Percussion, and Color Guard. The Navarro Marching Band begins rehearsing in mid-July.
