SPRING TOUR 2026

The Wind Ensemble Honors and String Orchestra Honors traditionally participate in a national and state festival each year. This year, based on student and parent responses, we have decided that Seattle, Washington will be our destination. The group will be performing at a nationally adjudicated festival with similar level ensembles from around the country. 

A parent meeting is scheduled for Wednesday, November 5, 2025 at 6:30pm in the Music Room at Ventura High School. Please plan to attend this important meeting so you can learn more about the upcoming trip.
