Hello! My name is Russell Belote and I am the Band Director at Hibbett Intermediate School. Additionally, I assist with band instruction at FMS Middle School as well as Florence High School.  At Hibbett, we offer young musicians the opportunity to get started learning Flute, Clarinet, Saxophone, Trumpet, Trombone, Tuba, and Percussion.  Through the years, our band students get the opportunity to travel to, and perform at, some of the most exciting venues in our country, as well as pump up our Falcon Family at concerts, parades, and football games.  I'm always excited to see new faces joining our band family each year and I can't wait to meet YOU! If you have any questions about what BAND can do for you and your family, don't hesitate to contact me day or night! Go Falcons!
