The McCallum High School Band program is highly respected throughout the state on the concert stage as well as on the marching field.  The MAC BAND is a consistent UIL Sweepstakes Trophy winner (1st Divisions in Marching, Concert and Sightreading).  The McCallum Wind Ensemble was recently named as a State Finalist in the Texas Music Educators Association Honor Band competition.  In 2005-06, the Marching Band advanced to the UIL STATE MARCHING CONTEST held at the Alamodome in San Antonio, Texas.  In addition, the McCallum Band most recently performed at Carnegie Hall on June 15, 2008, marking the fourth McCallum Band appearance in the world’s most famous concert hall!
