WHAT TO WEAR FOR MARCHING PERFORMANCE

On Friday nights and during competitions and other special events, students wear items under their uniforms to make for easy removal. 

Help students get in the habit of having Gray Performance Shirt, Blue Shorts, Black Gloves, Long Black Socks, and Black Super Drillmaster Shoes for Friday Games and all competitions.  This is called “GrayBlueBlack-BlackBlack.”

Many students stay at school on Fridays to get ready for the game and meals are provided for an extra cost for your convenience. Having the items your child needs to wear in a bag in their backpack the night before will help them remember to have everything they need.
