Wolfpack History
Founded in 2005, the wolfpack music department has grown into something the school, county, and state can be proud of.  After the first year the music department saw growth of almost 200% with the chorus and marching band doubling in size.  Spring 2007 the Wolfpack Jazz Band was introduced for the first time. Through support of administration, parents and the students, this music department has turned into something special.

       Color Guard Instructor:
         Alisha Mitchell

Hi my name is Alisha Mitchell and I am proud to announce that I am the color-guard instructor here at SFMHS! I would like to take a minute to tell you a little about myself!

 

  • I have been twirling for that past 22 years and also took tap, jazz, ballet, kick-line, and point for 16 years.
  • I started competing at the age of 6. I have over 30 awards, most of which are 1st and 2nd place trophies.
  • Became a varsity majorette in the 6th grade.
  • The first, youngest varsity majorette in a marching band in Ohio.
  • A four time winner for the four surrounding counties as the majorette for my high school.
  • Titled as Miss Majorette nationally.
  • Placed 1st and 2nd at the Ohio State Fair two years in a row.

 

I have experience in twirling baton, fire baton, knives, fire knives, twirling multiple batons at one time including fire. I was a majorette for 6 years for the marching band during High School and am experienced in flag. I trained with the color-guard as a stand in if a team member was absent. I also competed with the color-guard at the county fairs. I taught baton for 4 years as a private teacher. My baton instructor was a member of the USTA (United States Twirling Association) and my color-guard instructor was a member of the Drum and Bugle Corps that toured the U.S. I am a firm believer in "There is no I in TEAM", so everyone is treated with respect and equality! I am looking forward to growing with new faces and putting on a great show! I also would like to train the Color Guard to compete in winter guard competitions So if your competitive and love to have fun while learning PLEASE come out! No experience necessary! You can contact me by email at alisha.mitchell@rocketmail.com or call me at 239-878-6992! I am looking forward to a great season!
