    Dempsey Middle School


There are two scheduled band periods at Dempsey. The Orange Band (primarily 7th graders) and the Black Band (primarily 8th graders). Both groups perform their own music for each concert throughout the year (approximately 4) and will perform at adjudicated contests each Spring. Classes meet 5 days a week for 40 minutes each day. Students will have opportunities to work in small groups, individually, use technology and further their skills as a member of these ensembles. One of the highlights each year is "Dempsey Night"; a Friday night football game in which the Dempsey Band students perform at halftime.

On Friday, May 8th, both the 7th and 8th grade bands will perform at the OMEA Large Group Adjudicated Contest at Big Walnut HS in Sunbury, Ohio. The groups will be evaluated by three (3) judges and receive comments and a rating.

7th grade will perform at 4:50 pm and 8th grade at 7:10 pm.

We will transport all students by bus. The busses will depart Dempsey at 3:30 and return following the 8th grade performance.  Approximate arrival time back to Dempsey is 8:30 pm.  

Attire is the Black Musician Polo and Black slacks or skirt.  Please wear dress shoes.

Parents are welcome to attend this event (It is free) and listen to the students perform.  It is always more fun to perform in front of a crowd versus an empty auditorium, so please consider coming to support the kids.
