We are looking forward to seeing all our band and guard members in class this week as we hit the official start of the 2022-2023 school year! A few notes for the week:
Morning / Evening Rehearsals Classes this week run on an All-Block Schedule, meaning hours 1-7 meet every day. This week marching band will rehearse Thursday and Friday morning beginning at 7 AM and Thursday evening from 6-8:30 PM. Students should report to the Band Lot at 7 AM. Please bring appropriate marching footwear and we suggest a change of clothes. Students will always be dismissed during 1st block to have sufficient time to change prior to their next class. This is a unique schedule due to the start of school. On normal weeks, marching band rehearses Monday, Wednesday, and Friday at 7 AM and then of course Thursday evenings. Back to School Performances Drumline will perform on Tuesday morning, August 16 beginning at 7 am to welcome our 9th grade students. Leadership and volunteers will perform at 9:45 am on Tuesday, August 16 for the 9th grade kick off assembly.
