Band Performance Schedule

To add our event dates to your calendar, please click here for link to the NHS Music Boosters Calendar.  ​Every effort is made to keep the calendar current. The Music Directors may add an event or adjust the report time which may not be changed in the calendar; however, the information is always given to the student during class, posted on Schoology, and sent out via Remind.

Report
Times
Report time is always earlier than the event time. Band members usually need to arrive at the band room approximately one hour ahead of time. Please make sure you arrive in plenty of time to have all of your equipment prepared and uniform ready to go.

​“To be early is to be on time, to be on time is to be late, to be late is to show you don't care.”

Graduation

Our band and chorus perform at the Newark High School graduation ceremony each year.  

Permission Slips & Syllabi

Medical information and "permission-to-travel with the band" forms will be sent home during the week of Band Camp. These must be returned at the end of Band Camp. Syllabi will be shared once school is in session.  This required parental signature, also.
