WHAT IS EXPECTED OF A PARENT OF A MARCHING BAND STUDENT?
A parent of a marching band student requires flexibility. Rehearsal places, times of practice, etc. do change based on the needs of the band. Changes in schedules are kept to a minimum but they do occur and consequently, parents need to be flexible. Your child, as well as all students and staff, need your support. There will be times when your child or your childâs friend becomes discouraged. Your encouragement to keep plugging along will help get them to the next competition and to Atlantic Coast Championships. Even the experienced marchers occasionally need to be reminded of why they are investing so much effort. But when they are reminded of the feeling they get standing on the field at ACCs, they all want to continue toward that goal. We also need your assistance on various committees and activities (we value your time and energy as much or more than your financial support).
