Rehearsal PolicyAttendance at rehearsals is mandatory and comprises the majority of your student's grade. Make sure your student is prepared for rehearsal with equipment in working condition, music and materials, and a pencil. Excused absences are defined as weddings, funerals, or illness requiring an immediate doctor's care. Examples of unexcused absences are things like having too much homework, babysitting, conflicts with work, or not having a ride to/from rehearsal.

Marching Band Rehearsal ScheduleStudents are dismissed from the rehearsal location at the end time. Please allow 15-20 minutes of travel time after rehearsal to walk back to the band room to put away instruments, equipment, and props.
*If there is a football game on Friday, the entire Simi Valley High School marching band will rehearse from 3:30pm-5pm (or end a little earlier). Students will then have an hour break and will return at 6pm to prepare for the pre-game at the evening football game. We do not rehearse on Saturday's. There is only one Saturday rehearsal at the beginning of the season to help keep us on schedule. Saturday's are competition days beginning in October. Not all Saturdays are competitions. We are currently waiting to solidify the schedule, so what you see on the calendar may not be what we actual do. |
