SCHS Marching Stallions

South Columbus High School Marching Band Camp It is time again to prepare for next year’s marching band season. In order for us have a successful and winning season we must take steps to help get our band get started early. We will be having our annual band camp on June 13-16 from 8am- noon and August 14-18 from 4 - 8pm .  This camp is completely free and will be held in the SCHS band room. Students will need outdoor clothing, instruments and water for camp.  It is very important that students attend band camp, during this time we learn show music, football music and their position in this year field show. Students who do not attend camp will be very far behind and may not be able to catch up, please make every effort to attend.   If you have summer school just come to camp on days you can attend.  Before camp please fill out our Emergency contact forms so we can be aware of any allergies or health concerns.   Emergency Contact Form   ...

Great job at CTA! This week we will be working on preparations and plans for the middle school visit/recruitment day next week.   Leadership intent form Anyone who is interested in a leadership position next year please fill out the above intent form. Student leaders can be in any grade level and are chosen based on ensemble need and previous class participation. Please note that just because you were previously in a leadership role does not mean you will be in one next year it is not because you did not do a great job it may simply be because our needs have changed. Student leaders will be chosen based on what is best for the ensemble. This weeks quiz is a 20min practice or sectional out side of class. No recordings due this week.
