We will hold auditions for students who want to participate in the Ridgeline HS Marching Band percussion program next school year, 2025 - 2026. Auditions give you a chance to work with the band staff and experienced students to help assess and grow your current skill level so you are prepared and placed on the correct instrument for marching band.
Students who currently are in the 9th, 10th or 11th grade are expected attend, as are 8th graders from Greenacres MS, and Selkirk MS - who expect to attend Ridgeline HS in 2025 - 2026. Times and materials are highlighted below, if you do not come to these events - we do not know if you want to be part of the incredible marching band experience our school is proud to offer - please make sure we see you. Come to all of the audition dates for your section.
Incoming freshmen, we HIGHLY ENCOURAGE you to come to all three audition dates to assure you are placed in a position that helps you succeed. Remember to bring the printed packet downloadable with the respective dates.
