Last year, our team placed 3rd out of 81 teams in the Baltimore area, the highest finish in school history. In addition to the televised show, my team and I attend various tournaments sponsored by the host school. These tournaments usually follow a system similar to the televised show.</p>

<p>-I was unable to continue Marching Band into my twelfth year because I am not enrolled in a band class this year, due to a scheduling conflict between band and AP Statistics. At my school, you must enroll in a band class to be eligible to be in the Marching Band; as such, I was unable to participate in twelfth grade.</p>
