Band Handbook
Please see the band handbook below for all policies and procedures pertaining to the LNHS Band Program.
1st Hour Advanced Band Early Rehearsals
All students in the advanced band which meets 1st hour begin rehearsal at 7 am everyday other than Wednesday and continue to the end of 1st hour. We maintain this schedule until October 20 when the competitive marching season ends. During concert band season, the Wind Symphony and Symphonic Band meet early only a few times as needed, in preparation for a performance.
Explanation of Concert Season
For the past several years, we have been able to fill 3 full concert bands. Our numbers are down slightly this year and instrumentation is insufficient to adequately fill 3 bands. All students in the 2nd hour band class should currently have 1st hour flex. At some point during the last week of October, 2nd hour band students who play woodwind or brass will have schedules changed to 1st hour band and 2nd hour flex. They will become part of the Symphonic Band. Students in 2nd hour that play percussion will stay with the same schedule and perform as a stand alone percussion ensemble all year. For Questions, please contact Mr. Fuller
