​OUR MISSION

Excellence In Education

It is the goal of the Riverton High School Instrumental Music Program to provide students with positive, life-changing experiences through learning about, experiencing, and performing music at the highest level. Instructors work with students to cultivate leadership experiences while fostering a sense of ownership, accomplishment, and pride.

Community Involvement

Riverton High School has a storied tradition of excellence in service to the community. Each year the student body participates in Silver Rush, a school-wide event to raise money and awareness for a charitable organization. In 2018, Silver Rush raised over $195,000  for Shelter Kids, a non-profit that helps homeless teens. Other service opportunities include the Silverwolf Community Jazz Dinner Dance, a fun dance for the Riverton Community put on by the Instrumental Music Department in collaboration with the Ballroom Dance Department.

Ensembles and Educators

The Riverton High School Performing Arts Department offers a wide variety of creative opportunities for students. Seven full-time faculty provide high quality instruction using the Utah State Standards for Music Education. The 2018-2019 Faculty has recently been featured in the South Valley Journal, the 2017 Utah Music Educators Midwinter Conference as well as this years 2019 Utah Music Educators Midwinter Conference!
