Notes-
Football games are required for all Concert Band, Wind Ensemble and Jazz Band students. Those band students on Varsity Football are excused from performing during games. Any freshman or JV football player is expected to join the band after their game. Any band student who has a Pioneer team competition will be excused with advance notice. Any excused absence is made up by doing an extra live review. The band room is open afternoons after school until game time- the call for games is usually 5:00 or 5:30. Students are usually done cleaning up after the games by 10:00.
