Marching Band
- Optional for 8th - 12th grade
- Performs at all home football games
- Performs at five marching competitions from September through November (most are on Saturdays)
- Rehearsals on Tuesday (4:00 pm - 6:00 pm) and Friday (9:00 am - 12:00 pm) from September to late October. Students will be excused from Tuesday rehearsals if they are on a sports team that meets during our practice time.
Can I participate in sports and band?
Yes. Many band students are also on a sports team. If you participate in sports, you can be excused from band performances that conflict with the sports schedule.
Do I have to buy my own instrument to be in band?
No. You have the option to buy or rent your own instrument, but you may also use a school-owned instrument for free.
Do I already need to know how to play an instrument?
No. We will teach you everything you need to know about reading music and playing an instrument.
Do I have to be in marching band in order to be in concert band?
No, but you will be missing out on a lot of fun.
Does it cost money to be in marching band?
The marching band fee is $30. This covers the cost of your shoes, shirt, and competition fees. If you participate in two of our car washes, you do not have to pay the fee.
