Thank you for your participation. We have, as best we can, equally divided the pep bands into two teams, Orange Team and White Team. Each team has games that they are assigned to and must attend. IF you want to attend a game that you are not assigned to, you may but be sure to ask and tell the directors. If you only added one or two games that you could attend you are not listed on a team. We can't justify you getting a free t-shirt for one game. Please be sure you have your instrument/equipment with you for each game. The band room will not be open. Please be at the gym with instrument, orange polo (until t-shirts are ready) and flip folder with all music by 7:10pm for each game. You will mainly play short tunes during time outs. If it is reported you are not behaving and/or not cooperating with the Drum Majors you will be removed from the team. Enjoy and have fun!

Rehearsal Schedules
Required after school Band rehearsal schedules can be found HERE for Marching band, Percussion, Color Guard and Concert and Symphonic Bands.
Please note below taken from the Band Handbook pages 6-7 concerning rehearsal/performance attendance:
REHEARSAL ATTENDANCE
Attendance at all scheduled rehearsals (full band and sectionals) and performances is required of all members of the band program. Unexcused absences or frequent tardies will lower your grade and hinder you from performing. It is your responsibility to notify the band director in advance (at least 2 weeks) with a signed note or email from your parent/guardian if you will miss a rehearsal. You must make up all excused rehearsals by staying after school, making up the lost time, and typing up a report on your practice session and giving it to the directors.. Failure to do so within one week will result in your grade being lowered 10 pts. per missed rehearsal during that 9-week period. We request that 2 weeks prior to a performance no rehearsal is to be missed; no excuses except family emergencies. The student will not be allowed to perform with the band and as a result they will receive a failing grade for that 9 weeks. This is why we post calendars on Charms and the website in June of each year for the following school year..
Excused absences included the following reasons: (Must be made up within one week)
1. sickness – must have signed note from parent/guardian
2. death in the family
3. pre-arranged conflict -- must be cleared in advance (at least 2 weeks) 4. emergency doctor's appointment.
