July Camp is Here!
Starting July 15th, sectionals will be starting up in the band hall. Please check the calendar and BAND app for your prospective times. There are many UIL guidelines set in place to ensure that we can rehearse safely. We will also be taking additional precautions to ensure the safety of our staff and students. In order to attend the camp, every student will be required to fill out a Pre-participation Physical Evaluation. Click here for a copy of the PDF. Students who did not receive a physical last year will also need to have a physical done before August 1st in addition to this form. All students will be required to wear face masks and will be instructed when and if to remove them during the rehearsal. This will only occur when students are properly socially distanced. Lastly, students will need their own lunch and water jug as no sharing will be taking place. While we are excited at the prospect of coming back to do marching band again, safety is our primary concern. Students who are unable to complete this checklist will not be able to attend the camp. Additionally, we are asking guardians and students to assess themselves for any possible symptoms of COVID-19. If you are experiencing ANY, we ask that you communicate to us that you will not be able to attend the camp. Symptoms of COVID-19 include: Fever or chills, Cough, Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing, Fatigue, Muscle or body aches, Headache, New loss of taste or smell, Sore throat, Congestion or runny nose, Nausea or vomiting, Diarrhea, Persistent pain or pressure in the chest, New confusion, Inability to wake or stay awake, and Bluish lips or face.

Digital Traditionals Are Up:
While we are sad to hear that we will not be finishing out the school year in person with our students, we are keeping up our excitement for this coming year's marching season. In efforts to keep spirits high, we are putting up the music for our Alma Mater, Fight Song, and our beloved Cherokee onto our website. The students can now access a digital copy of their music to play/memorize/look at their leisure. Additionally, we are actively looking at how COVID-19 is going to impact our summer schedule. Please be patient and understanding that schedules for summer band will be tentative in this time of uncertainty. (posted April 20th, 2020) |
