The La Porte High School Marching Band is proud to announce the official kickoff of its 2025 season! With months of preparation, dedication, and teamwork ahead, the band is ready to bring energy, precision, and musical artistry to audiences across the region.

This year’s production, titled “Off the Rails”, features a dynamic and captivating musical and visual journey. The show is arranged by John Fannin and includes some original music as well as familiar tunes like Chattanooga Choo-Choo and Crazy Train

Under the direction of Joe Clark, the La Porte Marching Band continues its tradition of excellence, combining challenging music, innovative drill, and strong school spirit. Over 79 students, 51 returning and 28 new, will take the field this fall, representing La Porte High School in competitions, football games, and community events.

“It’s always exciting to start a new season and see how all the students work together,” said Clark. “We had a great parade camp and performance, and I think we really have a great show to put together and share with the community this year.”

The band invites family, friends, and fans to support them at their upcoming performances, beginning with Arts in the Park at 6 p.m. on Thursday, August 14, at Fox Park.
