Truckee High School's Band program was formerly directed by Mr. Dave Green, a well-known name in music, for almost two decades until he retired in 2013. During the 2013-2014 school year, the band was directed by Theresa Smith. Since her resignation in 2014, the band has been under the direction of Jesse Steele. The traditional bands (Wind Ensemble and Symphonic Band) contain around 70 students in total and are split into these two bands primary based on age (The Freshmen and Sophomores in Symphonic Band and the upperclassmen in Wind Ensemble). However, there are exceptions due to equalizing class sizes and scheduling conflicts with other classes. The students learn music theory, practice concert pieces, and play skills on their instruments during the school day. During the football season, the band members also participate in Marching Band and can be seen at the varsity home games. The students also have the option to participate in Region V Honor Band in Chico, California, Solo and Ensemble Festival, the local band festival, Sierra College Honor Band, and more. Annually, they take a trip known as band tour, during which they take a charter bus to San Francisco and the surrounding bay area, and Napa, California, and play at convalescent homes, children's hospitals, elementary schools which lack music programs, and Veterans homes.

gollark: Maybe? Part of the reason *I* use custom ROMs is to avoid Google services and stuff, which are preinstalled and unremovable by default.

gollark: I don't think it has good theming natively still, and in any case they let you get updates for longer and stuff.

gollark: There's a guide and stuff, but I'm not sure how hard it would be to actually do.

gollark: I have an old also-Samsung Android tablet from 2016 or so (got it for free) which I might try and port postmarketOS too, if it's not too hard.
