The Carson Middle School Marching Band performs at parades every fall, and is by far the most visible group in Carson Middle School. Comprised of students from Intermediate Band and Advanced Band, these students will perform at the Nevada Day Parade in October, the Veterans Day Parade in November, and the Sparks Hometowne Christmas Parade in December. In 2016, the CMS Marching Band won the "top marching band" award at the Sparks Christmas Parade.
