The Prosper ISD Middle School Band Camp is a great time for students to play fun music and spend time with their friends over the summer. This year's camp is June 2-6 at Walnut Grove HS. Registration and more info below!

This is an EARLY Spring concert to accommodate the recording process. Every year the Wind Ensemble competes in a recording competition that requires a stage and someone to professionally record. Because we are sharing the stage with Walnut Grove HS, the early time is needed and we want to thank you for being understanding. Wind Ensemble members must arrive to WGHS by 5:00pm for our 5:30 performance. All other Jones band students will be performing in the gym at Jones Middle School later that evening. Please keep this in mind when getting information for the whole band program, Wind Ensemble will perform at Walnut Grove and all other Jones bands will be in the Jones gymnasium beginning at 6:30 PM.

Our Spring Concert is THURSDAY in the JMS Gym. All students need to arrive by 6:00 pm wearing Concert Black, and the concert begins at 6:30pm.
