Band Notes -Sep 9, 2024

Hello Stampede Family,


Important Band Notes Lake Belton High School
Important Band Notes Lake Belton High School

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 30 students/parents who have not gotten this signed. Please take care of this over the week! Make sure you have done this on the Fine Arts portion of Rank One, not the athletics side. https://beltonisdfinearts.rankone.com


Monday, October 14th is a student holiday, and we will be having a rehearsal. This again, is a required rehearsal just like the Labor Day holiday rehearsal was. We will be rehearsing in the morning on October 14th from 8-10:30 am. This will take care of our Monday night rehearsal, so it will be the only rehearsal on this day.


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 third football game coming up on THURSDAY, September 12th, at Killeen’s Buckley Stadium. YES, THIS IS A THURSDAY NIGHT GAME! This is also our first AWAY game. We will be wearing our full performance uniform for this game. Make sure you have your Dri-Fit Stampede shirt and shorts, with long SOLID black socks, and marching shoes. The full game day itinerary is 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 the game.


Monday night rehearsals….Parents, please make sure you are here promptly at 7:00 pm to pick up your student from this rehearsal.


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!
