๐Ÿ†๐Ÿ† North Bend High School Band Makes Oregon History with Record-Breaking State Championship ๐Ÿ†๐Ÿ†Competing at the Oregon state championships held at Oregon State University on May 14, 2026, the North Bend team captured first place once again under the direction of Amber Yester. Watch here to see our band's reaction to the announcement. ย 

This championship marks an extraordinary fourth consecutive state title, continuing a remarkable streak of victories in 2023, 2024, 2025, and now 2026. The accomplishment also secures North Bendโ€™s place in Oregon history, with eight total state championships! North Bend now holds the record for the most 4A state band titles ever won by a single school, according to Oregon School Activities Association archives. ย Thisย newest championship firmly establishes the program as the most decorated 4A band program in Oregon history. Among all classifications statewide, North Bend trails only two giant 6A programs in total wins. WOW! ย 

The continued success of the program reflects the talent, dedication, discipline, and countless hours invested by students, staff, families, and community supporters. Under the leadership of Amber Yester, the North Bend band program sits as one of Oregonโ€™s elite musical dynasties and a source of tremendous pride for the entire community.

Congratulations to our students, director, families, and supporters on yet another historic achievement for North Bend School District.

๐Ÿพ Go Bulldogs!
