DMS Home Game v. Monrovia
Please email Mrs. Rhoades at cnrhoades@madisoncity.k12.al.us if your student is not on the Pep Band List and would like to perform - or needs to be removed from the list.
Students arrive at 5pm so we can practice together - we only perform at the 8th grade football game, which begins immediately following the 7th grade game. Usually 6:30 or 6:45! We will see - but there may only be one game at 6pm. Please see emails for updates.
Students who signed up should arrive at 5:00pm to DMS Band Room in your pep band polo if you already have one. Newly ordered polos have not arrived yet, we aren't sure if they'll arrive by Thurs. We will give them out right when they arrive.
You may enter through the door by the tennis courts. If you come through the front office, please drop off at the circle.
Students should wear pep band polo and jeans with Tennis Shoes
Students who need music should have all music in a flip folder that attaches to the instrument. Links in Week 2 band newsletter, or go to a local music store to grab.
Please make plans to pick up your student when they contact you (around 8:30pm).

Free of charge!
Concert Band Performance at Cobwebs and Cocoa
If this is outside the spectrum of your religion, please let Mrs. Merritt and Mrs. Rhoades know so we can accommodate this requirement.
Symphonic and Beginner Members: You will not be required to attend, but come out to support your classmates in Concert Band, Chorus, and Art!
Since this is a DMS PTA meeting event, we also encourage as many parents as possible to attend to support students by watching performances and participating in the meeting!
It's time to bring your instrument/binder/book DAILY!
Its time to start taking private lessons!
Private lessons on your instrument is highly recommended by your band directors! Lessons help make us all reach our full potential. These lessons are especially important with our large class sizes!
- Go to www.dmsbands.org and check out the "tutors" tab!
- Call around, but if those teachers don't pan out, shoot us an email! We will help you find someone you love.
Interested in Flute Lessons?
