Band Notes -August 30, 2024

Hello Stampede Family,


Important Band Notes Lake Belton High School

Monday night rehearsal coming up on Labor Day is required!!  It is part of your grade.  5-7 pm.


Parents, please make sure your child is on time for marching band rehearsals each morning.  We still have kids who are showing up late to rehearsals.  We start promptly at 7:30 am and students need to be in their warm-up block with their instruments by 7:30 am.  If they are in the front ensemble, they must be here no later than 7:00 am to get the front ensemble equipment moved and ready.  The band hall doors are locked at 7:30 am each morning.  Please plan accordingly to get your band kiddo here so we can all start on time! 


We have our second football game coming up on THURSDAY, September 5th, at Tiger Stadium on the Belton HS campus.  YES, THIS IS A THURSDAY NIGHT GAME!  This is also our middle school band night.  Uniforms for this game will again be the Dri-Fit Stampede shirt and shorts, with long SOLID black socks, and marching shoes.  The full game day itinerary is attached here.   Students DO NOT get to leave campus when school is out.  All band students stay to eat dinner and get ready for transportation to Tiger Stadium.


Monday night rehearsals….Parents, please make sure you are here promptly at 7:00 pm to pick up your student from this rehearsal. The September 2nd Monday night rehearsal lands on our school holiday of Labor Day.  This is a school holiday, but this is also a required rehearsal and is for a grade, just like all Monday night rehearsals.


The Belton ISD Extracurricular Code of Conduct needs to be read and signed.  It is available on Rank One.  I need everyone to please take a look at this and get the electronic form signed.  There are still 31 students/parents who have not gotten this signed.  Please take care of this!


IMPORTANT!!!  PLEASE READ - They have released the SAT testing dates.  2 of the testing dates conflict with band events.  DO NOT sign up for the SAT on Saturday, October 5, 2024 (Marching Contest) or on Saturday, December 7, 2024 (All-Region Auditions).  Any of the other dates are fine!
