(updated for 2025-2026 school year)
Below is a list of important dates for the school year. It is SUPER important that all students attend all required events for their grade level. We are a team so we must practice together AND perform as a team. Per the band handbook, concerts/performances are a REQUIRED part of a student's grade in band and attendance is required. Please add these dates to your calendar now so you can avoid schedule conflicts.
There are a few events that are optional (e.g. rental meetings, solo and ensemble, honor bands) although students are highly encouraged to participate. Additionally, this calendar does not include events for extra-curricular ensembles such as jazz band or percussion ensemble but they will be added as we schedule them.

We try our best to get all performance dates out to families at the beginning of the school year but sometimes circumstances beyond our control cause to us to need to reschedule events. In the event that we need to move a performance, we will let families know as soon as possible.
