Before I reveal the poll results, I want to, once again, give a shout-out to ALL of the amazingly talented students in these marching bands. They started working on their 2024 programs way back in the brutal heat of July and kept working to perfect that show all the way through October.

For some bands, the season has come to an end, but for others, the dream of a state championship is still alive. To the bands performing at the ISSMA State Finals competition on November 9th, we will you all the luck in the world (see their performance schedule below). And to ALL of the bands, we want to congratulate you, and thank you for a great season.
