Color Guard

Colorguard (Year Long)

Colorguard is a year long course offered to students in grades 9-12 who have auditioned and selected for the class. The course acquaints students with the techniques of marching and performing routines in parade, field and indoor environments. Performance opportunities include home football games, competition parades, spring indoor competitions, field tournament competitions, and a variety of other on and off campus events; many of which occur during the weekend.  Students will develop dance, drill and equipment skills; develop an increased sense of self-reliance and interdependence with others to create a satisfactory performance; exhibit mastery in performance techniques and be able to analyze the teams’ and their own performance through articulation of their thoughts and ideas. Because of the performance nature of this class, participation in rehearsals and performances before, during, and after the regular school day, and on non-school days, is expected and is part of the course curriculum.
