Band
The Archbishop Rummel band program is a co-educational program in conjunction with Archbishop Chapelle High School. The first part of the Raider Band season is spent rehearsing music inside and performing field drill outside for the football games and competition. Preparing a competition field show for several marching competitions and halftime performances are the main objectives of the marching band. The Marching Band also performs in three to four Mardi Gras parades a year and in Disney World in Orlando, FL every two years.
The Concert Bands are organized at the end of the football season by separating the marching band into three separate ensembles (symphonic, concert, and cadet) by means of a spring audition. The bands perform in competitions and at the Christmas and spring concerts. Band is a full year elective course.
The
Chapellette Dance Team is the exclusive auxiliary unit
to the award-winning Rummel Raider Marching
Band and has spent years refining their skills to become one
of the most well-known and admired Dance Teams in the city.
Each year the Chapellettes have been learning new skills
that clearly sets them above other dance teams with what
they do within the Rummel Raider community. The Chapellette
Dance Team represents both Archbishop Chapelle and
Archbishop Rummel High Schools by performing at all Rummel
Raider Football Games, Rummel Basketball games, several
Mardi Gras parades and many UDA sanctioned dance
competitions. |
