Join the Band 2019

The 2019 marching band season is starting SOON!

Have you ever thought about joining the marching band?  Not sure what it’s all about?  Come to the kickoff meeting on Wednesday, May 20, 2019 from 5:30-6:30 PM in the band room.  This is an informational meeting with a reveal of the 2019 band show.  You also get to meet the band staff and find out what marching band is all about! (No instruments needed at this first band meeting.)

The Kickoff Meeting is for students only, but parents of new and prospective students are invited to attend a new parents meeting.  This meeting will be held on Tuesday, June 4 at 6:15PM in the band area.  It will cover issues such as:

  • Band rehearsals/expectations
  • Expectations of students
  • Summer and fall schedules
  • Band competitions, and how they work
  • Parent roles, and how they support the band program
  • Communication of band and booster information.
