Updates for Middle and High School Music:

  Information for both high school and middle school music parents: *   High School Jazz Band :  Jazz Band evening rehearsals / classes will begin this coming Monday evening, Nov. 7th and will continues for the remainder of the school year.  Students who are part of the jazz band MUST be registered for the class through guidance and will receive a grade.  Other than being out for illness, there will be no excused absences for work or for simply having too much to do.  It's important that we are all present all the time.  "IF" you are unable to commit yourself at this level then please drop the class.  Even though it is an evening class, attendance is still taken, and students are awarded a 10 pt. grade each and every week for their attendance and participation. *   Drum Major Training/Auditions/Requirements for the 2023 Trojan Pride Marching Band:  Any student who may have an interest in becoming a drum major should let Mr. D. know as soon as possible.    Applicants
