Fine Arts in Action at Football Games
Varsity football games provide a showcase of student skills and talents across many Fine Arts programs in Denton ISD. DISD's bands, cheer teams, color guards, and drill teams provide an exciting game atmosphere filled with the sight and sounds our audiences enjoy. Our students carry on their school's unique traditions, provide the soundtrack to the game, and lead the crowd to cheer the teams to victory week after week. At halftime, Denton ISD's audiences enjoy the drill teams and the marching band shows that the bands are performing in contests. The Denton ISD communities love and appreciate all of their student performers at these games both home and away. Many thanks to our hard working students and directors!
