The Bands and Color Guards of Ashley Ridge High School welcome you. These units are comprised of the finest young people in the state of South Carolina and are a source of pride for the ARHS Family. Each individual member exemplifies dedication and commitment, striving to better the group through hard work and adherence to the high standards set forth by the program.
MISSION
We believe that young people possess an unlimited potential for learning, achievement, and personal success.
Every individual's self-worth is based on turning potential into accomplishment, and that requires a healthy measure of discipline. Band is a metaphor of life because it is a training ground for developing a solid pattern of personal
discipline habits. Band is a collection of artistic goals clearly defined and ultimately achieved. This process unlocks the power of commitment, puts human will in action, develops a positive attitude, controls negative thinking, encourages success, and deters failure.
