Two marching bands from the William S. Hart Union High School District won state titles at the Southern California School Band and Orchestra Association Championship.

Hart High School’s band and color guard team, the Hart Regiment, won the gold medal in Division 4A with their field show entitled, “L.O.V.E.” It is the 12th state title for Hart.

West Ranch took silver in the 4A division, with a score of 90.2, and also won the percussion caption award with their field show “Rain.”

Valencia High School earned gold in Division 3A with a score of 88.10. They also earned the percussion caption award with their field show “Electronica.” It is the third year in a row Valencia has medaled, winning two golds and one bronze in the past.

Other Santa Clarita schools that qualified and competed at championships were Golden Valley, which placed fourth with a score of 83.5, Canyon and Saugus.

The Hart Regiment has been invited to perform at the Pixar Parade on Dec. 9 at Disney’s California Adventure.

The Southern California School Band and Orchestra Association Championship, or SCSBOA, was held at Warren High School in Downey.

All competition scores from the SCSBOA Championship can be viewed at the competition’s website.

This is terrific. When I was at Hart(’68) we went to Battle of the Bands at the Holkywood and took 3rd. Always been proud of our music department. At that time Hart was the only High School in the district until Canyon opened its doors in Sept ’69
