Congratulations to both of our winter sports for an amazing start to the season!

Our MCHS Varsity Winterguard team placed 1st & our JV team had an impressive 4th place finish at their first official competition in Upland on 2/12. Our MCHS Indoor Drumline Team also placed 1st out of 20 teams in their division at their first competition of the season on 2/11. Our winter sport teams are off to an amazing start and we cannot wait to see what the future holds.

Our MCHS Parade Team performed at Disneyland on this past January with great success and we are off to Hawaii in March to perform at the Honolulu Grand Festival Parade where we will represent Mira Costa High School. Lots of excitement at the MCHS Bands Program!

Tryout Info

Marching Band and Colorguard are no cut programs, and can be taken for PE credit. No prior marching band or colorguard experience is required.

It is a year-round program.
Concerts and Jazz 1 band assessments are held in May/June. MBMS student scheduling is coordinated by Denise Haslop. Hermosa, Redondo and all other new students contact Mr. Carlson to schedule an assessment. All Marching Band students are required to be in a concert ensemble class: Wind Symphony, Wind Ensemble, Symphonic Band or Jazz Band 1. Colorguard students do not need to schedule an assessment, and are not required to be in a concert ensemble class. Colorguard students can sign up by registering for the “Flags” class when they complete their scheduling request.
The Marching Band & Colorguard season goes from August through November. Incoming Freshman have practice once a week in April-June prior to attending Mira Costa. Colorguard students may elect to continue in guard during the spring semester by participating in Winterguard (which also appears as “Flags” on the student’s schedule).
There is a mandatory Marching Band & Colorguard camp from noon to 8 pm two weeks prior to fall semester; 1 evening practice/week in June and July (absence due to vacation is excused.)
All Marching Band & Colorguard students members are Varsity members. All members perform at Field Competitions, Football Games, Disneyland and Parades.
