Lamar CISD Welcomes District's First Student Mariachi Program

Lamar CISD Welcomes District's First Student Mariachi Program

October 12 2023

Did you know that Lamar CISD now has a mariachi program for students?

The current school year marks the inaugural year of Lamar CISD's student mariachi program! The program offers beginner classes at Lamar Junior High and Lamar Consolidated High School, connecting culture and community, celebrating the sound of Mexico, and creating opportunities for all students to succeed in music.

“There is one young man in the mariachi band; he and his dad never talked until he joined the (mariachi) band… Most people say it is just a mariachi band, but I see a father and a son connecting,” said Dr. Roosevelt Nivens at the recent “Promise to Parents Brunch".
