What if I am signed up for marching band?
Due to schedule conflicts, students may not participate in both band and Fall Welcome. If you are a band student who would like to attend Fall Welcome, you will have the opportunity to attend select Fall Welcome events as your rehearsal schedule allows. You will not be charged the Fall Welcome fee and therefore you will not eat your meals with the Fall Welcome program. If you will be attending band camp, please do not register for Fall Welcome.
