MSHSAA (Missouri State High School Activities Association) is the governing body of all activities in the state of Missouri.  Since Band requires physical activities, the state has mandated that the following paperwork be completed and turned into the school.  Please, complete these forms and return them to the school, ASAP.
Below is the list of itineraries for upcoming events.  When the itineraries are ready for your viewing, the link will turn YELLOW.  Until then, they will be GREY.  Please, make sure you arrive at the correct time.  Band Directors will wait for no one.  The bus WILL leave at the time set on the itinerary!
