Evening Rehearsals: We rehearse every Tuesday and Thursday evening from 6 - 9 PM, unless otherwise noted In the band schedule. Students are to be on the field ready to play at 6 PM. Make sure to wear a white shirt (band) or black shirt (guard) and close-toed athletic shoes. Bring water! You will need your instrument, music, and UDB app every rehearsal as well. Attendance is required and conflicts should be reported and cleared well in advance.

Fall Sport Athletes / Activities in Band: We are excited to support our students In band and who participate in additional fall sports or activities! This week in class Mr. Love and Mr. Ramsey will be visiting with you to help proactively balance your schedule of practices / rehearsals / games / and performances to ensure an enjoyable and successful experience in ALL of your fall activities. A reminder that if you turned in your KSHSAA Physical and Forms Packet to the band office, we will also hand that over to athletics. You only need to turn in 1 Physical form. 

Band Handbook: A revised band handbook will be posted this week both on the website and in each student's Canvas Class. The handbook serves as the course syllabus for ALL band courses, and is where students and parents can find information on grading and other important topics.
