Band

The Mill Creek Band program strives each year to provide its students with positive and life changing educational
experiences through music. Our students display
the highest levels of passion, unity, perseverance,
and musicality in our performances, so that our
audience can see the best that Mill Creek High
School and the Gwinnett County Public Schools
have to offer. The concert band program at Mill
Creek has earned a high level of respect around
the state and region through its consistent
Superior rated performances at the GMEA Large
Group Performance Evaluation. The Mill Creek
Wind Ensemble has given guest performances at Columbus State University, Kennesaw State University, Georgia
State University, University of Georgia, and the 2017 Georgia Music Educators Association In-Service Conference.
In addition to group achievements, MCHS band students have been chosen through competitive audition to be
members of the Metropolitan Atlanta Youth Wind Ensemble, the Atlanta Youth Wind Symphony, the Atlanta
Symphony Youth Orchestra, the Georgia Governor’s Honors Program, the GMEA District Thirteen Honor Band, and
the GMEA All-State Band.

Audition is required for placement in any band classes.
