Last night's Band Parent Night was a success. It was great to see so many parents taking part. Thanks for coming out!
We hope everyone had a great time while gaining more appreciation for the hard work the kids put in to be successful.
Because we know you want to see it...here's a clip of the final artistic display from the parents.
This past Saturday, the Desert Ridge Marching Band was one of 24 bands competing in the AZMBA 3A Class Championships at Campo Verde High School in Gilbert. The band finished in fourth place against a tough lineup of bands.
Here are some photos from the event...
As always, additional photos can be found in the photo albums on the website.

THANK YOU all for supporting your awesome marching band kids!Parents, check with your student regarding the form that was put on their google classroom. This form needs to be filled out ASAP if you are planning on attending Parent Night.
Parent night is Tuesday November 12th. Parents take the place of your student on the field. It is so much fun and the students love having us there.

Less than a week until our winter guard season kicks off!
Reminder that the workshops next week are open to any DRHS or DRJHS students - no experience required! So if you have a sibling or friend who doesn't play an instrument but wants to do marching band, send them our way to get a head start on next season! Or if you play an instrument and want to try something new, come try it out! All you need is a willingness to learn!*
*Willingness to let go of a flag when we toss is also helpful 😉The Desert Ridge Winter Guard will be holding preseason hands-on clinics on November 18-19 from 6:30-9:00 PM in the DRHS band room!
These clinics are a chance for prospective members to try out color guard before we start our first rehearsals. We will be teaching flag and dance basics, as well as a short, introductory level routine!
No color guard, band, or dance experience is necessary to attend these clinics! If you are interested in these clinics, please also consider joining us for the student and parent international session on November 11 at 6:00 PM in the band room!
We discovered (after everyone left 😳) that winter guard packets handed out at the meeting today did not include the season schedule! I apologize for the inconvenience, we will have them at the clinics! If you would like a copy sooner, please feel free to message this page or reach out to the email listed in the guard packet.
AZMBA Championships ✨
Fourth overall and third in guard! One more week to finish out a great season!
