The Hoover High School Marching Band is one of the most prominent aspects of school and community life. It is an honor and a privilege to be affiliated with this organization. We hope that you will enjoy your time as a member of this band and will join us in making it the best organization that it can be.

The Hoover Band is a unique and integral part of the Hoover High School curriculum. The following is a compilation of many of the policies and expectations of the Hoover Band Program. The Marching Band is approximately the 1st grading period of the full year Hoover Band Program. Following the 1st grading period, students will audition for the Hoover Concert, or Symphonic Band (See Audition Procedure).

Requirements for Membership

The Hoover Marching Band consists of Hoover Band Members grades 9-12. The Hoover Marching Band exists during the summer and during the football season; however, other performances are occasionally called for during the school year. Auditions are required for prospective members of the Marching Band new to the North Canton City Schools’ Band Program or students not in the Marching Band during the previous school year.

The Hoover Marching Band rehearses during the summer, during the last period of the school day, and after school until 3:35 pm. With increased effort, students are able to participate in other school-sponsored activities during the marching band season (i.e. soccer, cross- country, cheerleading, etc.).

Students needing to order new shoes should contact: BandingTogetherLLC at 1-833-549-7664 and ask for Donna.
