Trunk or Treat is coming up
Congrats!!!
Congratulations on a great first show! In our program debut in the 5A division, we won first place, and took home high auxiliary and high percussion awards.
Thank you students for all your hard work! Keep it up. I’m so excited to see how far we can take this show!
Thank you parents, for all of your help on show day, for volunteering countless hours, for driving your kids to and from rehearsal, for being the loudest parent section at the show, and for causing a minor earthquake with your car horns as we pulled into the parking lot!
Middle School Night
This Thursday is a home football game at Rants Stadium. We will be welcoming over 130 middle school students to perform with us, and to show them how we do things here at Cerritos High School! What an exciting event for our program!
Here is the call sheet. Come out to see our show, and what the future of our program can be!
Show Week!
Happy show week!
This week we are trialing a new call sheet format. The idea is that the call sheet will use the same link each week. You will also see ticket information, maps, and more linked at the bottom of the call sheet.

Fireworks Coordinator Needed
This year we are looking for a fireworks coordinator. It's a great opportunity to get more involved in our program! We're looking for a reliable parent who is willing to run our 2025 fireworks stand. If you are interested, please let us know, and we would be happy to get you more information about this position.
Athletic Clearance
If you have not completed your athletic clearance yet, you must do it ASAP!
Each year, students need to complete a physical and athletic clearance packet for the school. This paperwork needs to be done BEFORE band camp, and turned in to the school. This does not come to the band program! Below you will find a link to the Athletic Clearance packet, the Physical Examination form, and a link to a local doctor who provides physicals for $25 and has worked with some of our students in the past.
