Those interested in participating in any of our programs will need to register for TWO classes:
MARCHING BAND - Semester Course
Marching Band is a Fall Semester course that all members of the Instrumental Music Program participate in. We hold after school rehearsals, and perform at rallies, football games, Saturday competitions, parades, and other campus-related activities.
All Marching Band students will earn a semester of PE credit each semester they complete. Participation at all after school rehearsals, competitions, football games, and school rallies is required and a part of the student's class grade. There is a financial obligation for each student with participating in Marching Band, and we will have several fundraising opportunities to lower costs.
Students have the option of participating in 2nd semester Winter Drumline, Winter Guard, or Winter Winds and will earn a second semester of PE credit if they do.
