The PRide Within

The South View Marching Tigers have a rich history and legacy of excellence. With numerous Superior ratings at festival, Grand Champions at Marching Band Competitions all across the state of North Carolina, to trips to Carowinds, Disney World, the Gator Bowl, and even as a far away as California, there is no other band program like South View.

In our 50 years, we have had 5 total band directors, Paul Dewberry, Jay Bolder, Matthew Jorgensen, Al Strickland, and Paul Ingram.

He previously taught at Hope Mills Middle School for 12 years before becoming the high school band director. He is also a product of the band program in the South View District under the direction of Pauline Stemple (Hope Mills MS) and Jay Bolder.
