Submit your fees for the season (details here)
Deposit deadline: Thursday, May 22, 2025
Send fees to the LHS Band Office with your student, or pay in person at the Kickoff Meeting!
You'll choose a payment plan when you submit your commitment form!
Make sure you're registered for music class at LMS or LHS for next year
If you requested a music class during course registration, you're done!
If not, reach out to your counselor and make sure you're signed up for band, choir, or music theory.
If you've never taken a music class before, choir, percussion, and music theory are the best places to start in high school.
Color Guard members should also consider dance as a performing arts elective if they're not already in a music class.
Questions about which class is right, or concerned about schedule issues? Just contact Mr. Gentry or Mr. Williams.
Schedule and Complete your VHSL Physical
All Marching Minutemen are required by BCPS policy to complete a VHSL physical exam and submit completed forms before being allowed to participate.
Exams for the upcoming year's seasons must be done AFTER MAY 1, 2025 or they are invalid. Your physical for marching band will be submitted to our athletic trainer and will cover any winter and spring sports for next year as well.
Schedule appointments now, and consider local urgent care facilities in addition to your normal pediatrician or primary care provider. Many of those facilities will do the exam for a flat fee, rather than billing insurance.
Download the forms here. Print copies are available in the LHS Main Office.
Rank One Instructions
All participating marching band members must sign up and download the Rank One app. This is a new requirement by LHS. This app allows students & parents to upload all physical forms, permission to treat, etc. We need to have a VHSL physical on file by the start of home camp!
