Being a Jazz Band member:
Auditions for JV Jazz and Honors Jazz are held in May of the previous school year. Students who move in from another district at the beginning of the school year are eligible to audition, as well.
Jazz Band members are required to be in Band (Marching, Concert/Symphonic).
Jazz band members can expect to pay around $70 to WHS for participation in jazz. This gets them a t-shirt for casual performances and a dress shirt for festivals and concerts. This can be a one time fee, but sometimes students need to replace a t-shirt or dress shirt. They need to have black dress pants, black shoes (marching band shoes work) and jeans, as well.
Jazz Band members perform at select home basketball games, winter Meet the Tigers, concerts, several regional jazz festivals and local events as called upon.
Honors Jazz members are expected to audition for WCMMEA All-District Jazz Band. This audition occurs the first Saturday in November. JV Jazz members are eligible to audition.
