CO-CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES
 

MARCHING BAND

THE CENTERVILLE JAZZ BAND is one of the school’s largest co-curricular activities. This award-winning band performs at parades, football games, community events, and band competitions and represents Centerville High School throughout the area, state and Midwest. See the “Marching Band Information” section of the handbook for complete information.

JAZZ ENSEMBLES

Are offered as an important element of the total band program. Currently there are three jazz ensembles. The jazz groups perform at concerts and jazz festivals during the second semester. Rehearsals are after school, two days a week, following the Marching Band season. To participate, students must be enrolled in Wind Ensemble, Jazz Improvisation class, Symphonic, or Concert Band (except guitar, bass, and keyboard). There is a uniform fee.

WINTER GUARD and WINTER PERCUSSION

Are extra-curricular activities for those students interested in indoor Color Guard and indoor Percussion (which includes drum, other percussion and electronic instruments). There are several rehearsals weekly and competitions on weekends, including several overnight trips. The Winter Guard and Winter Percussion groups compete at local, state, regional and national events from December through early April. There is a participation fee and audition.

SOLOS AND ENSEMBLES

Are opportunities for band members to play in small groups to improve their skills. Much of the rehearsal is on an independent, self-study basis. There are opportunities to perform, such as the OMEA Solo and Ensemble Competition and various community events.

PEP BANDS

Are formed throughout the year as the needs arise. They perform for a variety of events such as school assemblies, sports activities and community events. The Basketball Pep Band plays at most home basketball games. The Pep Bands do not rehearse on a regular basis.
