Durant Road Middle School

Text Box: Located in north Raleigh, Durant Road Middle School is a year-round, multi-track school. For our band students, this means we get to play throughout the year. It also means that ensembles are better prepared for special concert opportunities as they present themselves. Our band program currently serves about 270 students. We have two directors, Mr. Kuni and Mr. Powell, who share the teaching responsibilities. They team-teach the 6th grade beginning students. Mr. Kuni also teaches the 7th grade band on tracks 1 and 2, as well as all of our 8th grade band students. Mr. Powell is the director for the 7th grade band on tracks 3 & 4 and works in the afternoons at Heritage Middle School. Get to know our directors by visiting the directors page. Students can also see information specific to their respective band classes by going to Mr. Kuni’s page or Mr. Powell’s page.
