10 NHS Eagle Pride Over 50 Years of Excellence! The NHS Band program has but one mission to create educated consumers of music and welladjusted citizens through participation in band.
11 NHS Eagle Pride Over 50 Years of Excellence! 66% of all medical school applicants who have their undergraduate degree in MUSIC are ACCEPTED into medical school This is higher than accepted math and biology applicants combined!
12 NHS Eagle Pride Over 50 Years of Excellence! Michigan State University s Law School claims that students with undergraduate degrees in music are better at time management, public speaking, studying, and are overall more successful in their first year Law Brief Writing classes.

20 NHS Eagle Pride Over 50 Years of Excellence! Our program has a national reputation for performances of the highest level. However, it is our belief that that our highest achievement lies in the greater than 98% yearly retention rate in our enrollment.
21 NHS Eagle Pride Over 50 Years of Excellence! In 2003 there were over 2400 students enrolled at NHS (and 650 at LMS, 1250 at RMS). There were 225 in the band at NHS. As the enrollment has fallen to 2000 at NHS and less than 300 at LMS, the band size has increased considerably. While the school s enrollment decreased 17% our enrollment increased 7%. This is our highest achievement that we have created an environment of retention and growth!
22 Who Makes Up the Eagle Pride The Eagle Pride Marching Band Wind Instruments Wind Ensemble (aka 1st Band ) Symphonic Winds (aka Second Band ) Concert Band (aka Third Band ) Varsity Band (aka Fourth Band ) Drum Line / Percussion Battery (snares, quads, bass drums, cymbals) The Pit (mallets, keyboard, guitars) Auxiliaries Color Guard (Flags) Majorettes (Twirlers)
23 Typical Travel Marching Band-Football Season Travel to most out of town football games Full Band typically travels within the district Pep Band typically travels outside the district Big Marching Band trip every 4 years such as Rose Parade Concert Band and/or other ensembles Travel varies depending on opportunities Troy Alabama, MPA, etc.

27 Charms School code: nicevillehsb
28 Our Practice Field Challenge Band Room Eagle Pride Field
29 The Solution Our TOP priority is to provide for the safety of our students and for adult supervision until they are back in your possession. After consultation with the Niceville Police Department we have developed procedures that work! We know these procedures are not the most convenient BUT, with everyone s cooperation has worked SAFELY for five years now!
30 Evening Band Room Drop-Off & Pick-Up Driveway is CLOSED for equipment loading before AND after practice.
31 Evening Band Room Drop-Off & Pick-Up Driveway is CLOSED for equipment loading before AND after practice. Lower Lot is CLOSED to Drop-off and Pick-Up.
32 Evening Band Room Drop-Off & Pick-Up Enter from Cedar Ave. Park in either the upper or lower parking lots.
33 Evening Band Room Drop-Off & Pick-Up Students walk to the Band Room.
34 Walking Route from the Band Room
35 Set Up is a Multi-Load Process! Please DO NOT stop, block, or park near the gate at the Practice Field. It is the only access for equipment transport.
36 Parent Taxi Drop-Off & Pick-Up Please DO NOT drop-off or pick-up students on Palm Blvd., Old Coastal Hwy., or the Car Dealership.
37 Parent Taxi Drop-Off People s National Bank
38 ONLY Parent Taxi Pick-Up is at People s National Bank
39 Attendance Policy Attendance at practices and performances is mandatory. Any student who misses any portion of a rehearsal is subject to replacement for an indeterminate length of time if a qualified alternate is available. Notify the director in writing at least 4 weeks in advance for marching band and 8 weeks in advance for concert band of the time you want your request to be considered. Considered does not necessarily mean granted.
40 Excused Absence Criteria 1) Personal illness 2) Death of a relative 3) Observance of a religious holiday 4) College Visits ONLY for rehearsals (not performances) IF prior arrangements have been made with the Director. 5) Emergency circumstances which, in the judgment of the band director, constitute good and sufficient cause for absence from band. WORK IS NOT a valid excuse to miss school therefore it is invalid for missing rehearsals or performances.
41 ABSENCE REQUESTS What, When and Where A written ABSENCE REQUEST is required in advance of an absence, a tardy, or an early dismissal. A completed and signed ABSENCE REQUEST FORM is required to be turned in: 4 weeks in advance for marching band 8 weeks in advance for concert band. Absence Request Forms are Located: In the wall files outside the Band Office Online at
42 Alternate Policy Any excused absence from a rehearsal/performance will result in being placed on alternate status for a minimum of one week s performance. Any unexcused absence from a rehearsal/performance will result in being placed on alternate status for an indeterminate length of time possibly for the remainder of the season. Note: if you are sick, you should not attend a rehearsal or performance just to keep your spot. We do factor types of excused absences into the speed of your return to performing status. Alternates will shadow another performer during all practices.
43 Alternate Shadows vs- Shared A/B Pairs Unfortunately in the heat of battle (aka marching season) we use the term shadows interchangeably. This can create inadvertent messages. There is a HUGE difference between a shadow that is an alternate and a shadow that is just a shared pair. Shared pairs are equal performers in the spot Typically we either alternate weeks or split each show s performance time. Alternate shadows are NOT potential performers until their alternate status has been removed.
44 Why Have Shared A/B Pairs? Impossible to anticipate enrollment changes over the summer OR to predict attendance issues. As a result, we write the show for less performers than we have on paper. This means that we always start the season with shared pairs. (All sports teams have a bench! ) Majority of the group is not in a shared pair but, most shared pairs start out as freshmen. Do not be concerned if your student starts the season in a shared pair. ALL STUDENTS WILL PERFORM DURING THE COURSE OF THE SEASON!
45 Band Grading Policy It is expected that members of any performing ensemble in the Department of Bands will attend every rehearsal and performance in its entirety. Each student will start the 1st quarter with 100 points. The following is a breakdown of point deductions for each infraction: Unexcused absence from practice pts Unexcused absence from performance pts Tardy to practice. 3 pts Tardy to performance pts Unprepared for rehearsal pts (i.e., no instrument, music, flip folder, drill coordinates, etc.)
