Uniform for Friday:

Red shirt

Black shorts (school-appropriate length – athletic material is ok)

Short socks

Athletic shoes

*We had some girls whose shorts were too short. Please make sure shorts are appropriate and t-shirt does not cover your shorts.

Materials for Friday:

Instrument (in case)

Flip Folder/Lyre

FULL water bottle

Weather: It will be cooler than last week, so light jackets will be permitted in the stands but will need to be removed for Halftime. We will look GREAT if the jacket you bring is black, gray, red, etc. No hoodies or sweaters.

Distancing: We are looking forward to continuing to be a great example for the LH community with how we are socially distancing as a large student organization!

Marching Band/F2F logistics

Early Morning arrival of Marching Band students on a Rehearsal day: All materials NOT needed for rehearsal must be placed in lockers (Brass/Color Guard), on your assigned spot in the Band Hall (Woodwinds) or spaced out in the entryway between the Band Hall and Percussion Room (Percussion).

All students will be released from morning rehearsals at 8:15am and will return to the Band Hall. Only F2F students will be allowed back in the building and locker rooms (1 at a time – please move quickly)

From there, students will be dismissed to Athletic Locker Rooms (H-Building: Boys and Girls PE Locker Rooms). If you are using the Athletic Locker Rooms, masks must be worn at all times unless showering. You will need to move quickly through the Locker Room as you’re getting ready for the day – no congregating! If you are not using the Athletic Locker Rooms, you may not walk through any part of the building unless you are heading to the Hub or Auditorium after 8:30am.

Once you are dressed for school, ONLY 1st period Band students will be allowed to remain in the Band Hall and must be on their assigned spot with all materials needed for class. Non 1st-period Band students will need to follow the School Entry plan and remain in the Auditorium or Hub after dressing.

Band Lockers are assigned and will be used only for band materials.

Percussion: On days with morning rehearsal, Percussion will continue to rehearse 8:20-9:20 for 1st period. On Mondays and Wednesdays, virtual students will be let out early in order to get home for the rest of their virtual school day.
