Marching Band Rehearsals - There are a total of about 29 rehearsals from the middle of August (when school starts) to the end of November (when Marching season ends). All rehearsals are mandatory. If every student only misses 1 rehearsal we would have about 4 students missing every rehearsal which would not make the season successful. Please make sure that you put all of the rehearsals on your calendar.
Sectionals - Sectionals happen after school once every other week for 9 weeks. Each student will end up attending 5 sectionals during marching season. Students are required to attend sectionals. Welcome Back Assembly (8/23) - The Band students will be playing at this assembly. They will need to miss 4th period that day. Students must wear their red member shirt for the assembly. Home Football Game (8/23) - This is our first home game of the year. Call time for students is 6:00pm in the band room. We will be heading over to the stadium not too long after that as a group. The game starts at 7:00pm and is over around 9:30pm. Only the parents who have signed up to help will be let in for free. All others need to go to the front and pay to get in. Theory Assignments - These assignments will be given about every other week for musicians starting on August 26th. Each unit contains 5 lessons and at the end every student will be given a test on all of the lessons learned in their theory. If the student passes their theory final they will progress to the next theory level. Assignments are given on Monday and are due on Friday. Away (Foothill) Football Game (8/30) - During this away game we will still be on the home field, but we will be on the away side. We are playing Foothill High School so their will be a lot of people. The band will wear their red member shirt, closed toed shoes, and blue jeans. We will not be performing a halftime during the game. Listening Day - There are 5 listening days a semester. Students will listen to a piece of music and will answer questions when the listening is done. These assignments are during class, and students should not have to take it home and work on it. If the student is absent they will have 1 week to make it up on their own. Back to School Night (9/4) - The Jazz Band will be performing for Back to School Night. This will be a quick performance. More information will following soon. Home Football Game (9/5) - Call time for students is 6:00pm in the band room. We will be heading over to the stadium not too long after that as a group. The game starts at 7:00pm and is over around 9:30pm. Skill Assessment - All guard student will be given a sheet that will have to be completed by the end of the semester. Each student will have a small group test with the director. The grading system consists of the numbers 1-5 in which the student will need to get at least a 3. In order to advance onto the next playing packet you must pass all the playing tests on your paper. Playing Test - All musicians will be given a sheet that will have to be completed by the end of the semester. Each student will have an individual private test with the director in his office.
