Saturday, August 6, 2022

During registration, there are a number of items each student must purchase, as well as several documents that must be collected.  The fees for the school year are listed in the box to the right. Registration Day (8/6/22) is the only tax-free day!   Normally, registration takes approximately 2 hours from check in to check out. It is very important that we collect all the fees for the upcoming school year on this day.   We expect 100% participation on this day.

The Band Dri-Fit Shirt is worn when the full uniform is not necessary or appropriate. Students will be asked to wear their band Dri-Fit shirt with blue jeans or khaki shorts (khaki shorts preferred).  

The Blue Uniform Undershirt is a part of the formal marching band uniform. Since this will not change, you may continue using the same shirt if it is still in good shape and fits year after year.

Uniform Cleaning: The band provides cleaning for the marching uniform throughout the season and one concert uniform cleaning at the end of the concert season.

All students (including reserve block) are required to purchase the customized uniform items. PLEASE NOTE THAT ALL STUDENTS MUST SECURE PLAIN BLACK ATHLETIC SHORTS TO WEAR UNDERNEATH THE UNIFORM.
