Band & Guard Motto

Excellence is an art by training and habituation.

We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, therefore, is not an act, but a habit.

-Aristotle             

Band & Guard Expectations

SHOW RESPECT

Respect yourself.  Respect others.  Respect the band traditions, facilities, equipment, and uniforms.

BE PREPARED

Band members are responsible for doing their best, working on their individual skills, and practicing.  All equipment must be brought to rehearsals as requested.

BE ON TIME

Students should arrive at the building 15 minutes before the rehearsal is scheduled to be ready to start on time.  If you count on someone else to get a ride to practice, tell them the time you have to BE THERE is 15 minutes before the rehearsal begins.  With this concept, you will be prepared physically and mentally to begin the rehearsal and not flying in at the last minute or late.  You also will have a cushion of safety if there is extra traffic or if you are running a couple of minutes behind.
