Is participation in the Marching Band required to be in the Concert Band?
While it is not REQUIRED to be in 8th period band, we do require that all students attend
at least two rehearsals during the summer. This will give each student a chance to become familiar with Carroll and
see if marching band is for them.
Does the band have instruments like guitar, bass, or drum set?
No. All students must play a traditional band instrument. Students who play these instruments are
encouraged to be in the band, but they must learn new instruments. Instruments will be provided by the school and lessons
will be given free of charge.
Can I participate in other activities while in the band?
YES!!! The director understands that high school is a time for students to participate in many activites.
The band director will work around sports schedules and other activities. Currently, there are students in the band
who participate in freshman football, lacrosse, soccer, track, tennis, best buddies, NHS, mock trial, and many others.
