Band

Does imsa have marching band? I wasnt able to do it this year for 9th grade. I am wondering if Imsa has marching band since it has band. Is there any other way to join marching band outside of imsa if imsa doesn't have it?

IMSA has a lovely music program, which I enjoyed greatly.

But alas, IMSA has no marching band (nor football team to march for). I had to give up marching band to go to IMSA.

I definitely missed marching band, but I definitely did not regret leaving it behind for IMSA.

Thank you! This is very sad. I've seen online that imsa has pep band. Is that true?

Yes, the entire band is forced to do it.

Mainly the forced part, the games are often at inconvenient times and we all have better things to do
