[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm surprised that to be in band class during the regular school day you have to be in marching band.  I didn't realize the school could require you to participate in an after-school activity.  So someone that plays football, is a cheerleader, or doesn't have after school transportation can't even take band during the day?  [/quote]
As a practical matter, who would march in the band if not the high school band class?  Also, this all should have been well covered in the many opportunities that middle schoolers and their parents have to interact with the high school or hs counselors before August of their freshman year.  The band kids I know auditioned in January of their 8th grade year for the hs band.  [/quote]

I would suspect that most of the marching band would be from the band class but not that being in marching band would be a requirement to be in band class.  That is like saying if you take a French language class you have to be in French Club. [/quote]
