Jazz Band
North Shore Middle School offers before and after school extra curricular activities. One of these activities is Jazz Band. Every one in this group comes in at 7:45 a.m. and rehearses until 8:30 a.m. on Mondays and Wednesdays. They play many styles of jazz music such as swing, blues and funk. Also the Jazz Band always gets the opportunity to start “Rockin’ Knight”. Rockin' Knight is an annual talent show for students to showcase their singing abilities and the Jazz Band is the opening act! These dedicated jazz students are even invited to perform in Arrowhead’s “Hot Chili, Cool Jazz” where they serve hot chili and then you can listen to some cool jazz.

Famous quotes containing the words jazz and/or band:
“The further jazz moves away from the stark blue continuum and the collective realities of Afro-American and American life, the more it moves into academic concert-hall lifelessness, which can be replicated by any middle class showing off its music lessons.”
—Imamu Amiri Baraka (b. 1934)
“Nothing makes a man feel older than to hear a band coming up the street and not to have the impulse to rush downstairs and out on to the sidewalk.”
—Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
