Throughout the year students will be performing in different concert attire.  What they wear for a performance will depend on the location and how formal the venue/performance is. Fore example, if we are playing outside for a parade we would go with the music shirt and jeans. If we are performing for UIL Concert we would be in Formal Concert Attire. This is a guide to help parents and students understand what clothing we are asking the students to wear to a performance. 

For the concerts listed above, students are requested to  wear "Business Casual" or "Sunday's Best" attire. They  can also use this for performing solos or small ensemble performances. Students have more flexibility in what they wear but there are some ground rules:  

"Can I wear my boots and blue jeans?" Yes, if you follow these rules:

1) To wear jeans you must also wear: a cowboy hat, proper western boots and a collard button-down shirt.

2) These items must be clean and boots polished. These are not your everyday work clothes. 

3) The darker the jeans the better. No stains or holes please. 

See the photos below for examples: 

We typically wear this in the spring around Concert contest season. If your student is in the high school band they will be required to have these items if they are going to participate in the Concert Competition or Pre-Contest Concerts. The basic rules are:

Gentlemen: Black dress pants, white long sleeve button-down collared dress shirt. Black belt and black dress shoes (marching shoes are acceptable)…and of course LONG BLACK SOCKS!

Girls: Black dress pants or black long skirt/dress down to the ankles and White dress shirt or blouse. Black belt (if worn) and black dress shoes…and of course LONG BLACK SOCKS (if worn)! Basically, 

These are NOT acceptable for Formal Concert Attire:
sandals/flip-flops, short skirts, black jeans, leggings or yoga pants
