As we suddenly are headed towards our late fall/winter
season of concerts and activities, we have several reminders and scheduling
details to be aware of. Please read through the following carefully:
Marching Band Members
– Last Football Game - The call-time for Friday's game is 5:30 PM. Students
will be asked to change directly into uniforms and be on the EAST Practice
Field by 5:45 PM for warm-ups and a final run-thru before the game. Students may
want to wear a warm layer under their uniforms but nothing bulky that will make
it difficult for the uniform to fit. JEANS ARE NOT TO BE WORN UNDER THE
UNIFORM! The weather is predicted to get a bit colder than the summer-like
weather we’ve been enjoying, but looks like it will stay dry!
Marching Band Members
and Sports Exemption Students - Band-O-Rama Our annual indoor marching band concert will
be held next week on Tuesday in the Purple Gym at 7PM. Sports Exemption Students - You are required to attend this concert
to support your Marching Band colleagues. There will be an attendance clip-board
to sign in on. If your team or sport has a competition/game/match that evening
that would make it impossible to attend Band-O-Rama, please speak with Mr.
Teague or Mr. Miller THIS WEEK to discuss. Marching
Band Students - We will rehearse (out of uniform, but in black
socks/marching band shoes) from 5:30-6:30 PM on Tuesday. We will then change
into uniforms. We will NOT be wearing Shakos. We will be speaking with
Leadership Team and Band Board members more this week about decorating and
setting up the Gym from 3:30-5:30 on Tuesday. Thanks in advance for your help!
Florida Tour
