Music Department
Vestavia has a long-standing tradition of a quality music department. Both the band and choir have won numerous state and regional awards, and consistently place best-in-class in competition. Vestavia's jazz program, in particular, has been notable since its founding by bandleader Ted Galloway. The bands are currently under the direction of Jerell Horton, assisted by Heather Palmer. The band marched in the New Year's Day Parade in London on January 1, 2010.
Vestavia's choirs are currently under the direction of Megan Rudolph.
