There’s a fuller sound coming from the DVSS senior band. The Drumheller Valley Secondary School has added a drumline to the school band and so far it sounds good.
Band teacher Virginia Sakofsky said, “It was the student’s choice to bring back the drumline.”
Sakofsky has been a teacher at DVSS for 18 years and she said that this is only the second time since she has been at the school that there has been a drumline.
The drumline consists of seven students, all from the senior band. They will learn assorted music anywhere from classical to rock.
“It is very exciting to incorporate a drumline again,” Sakofsky said, “The next unit will be rock band and the students are very excited.”
Look for the drumline at the DVSS Remembrance Day Celebration on November 10. Watch for their performances in December at the Senior’s Dinner and the Fine Arts Night.
