Students will be selected for the 2024-25 Majorette team based on results of a rubric. In past years students were scored on the following items:

  • Following instructions
    • Is the fee deposit paid on time?  
    • Does the student wear the correct athletic clothing? 
    •  Has the student sent/received teacher recommendations?  
      • Students will be provided a link to an online spreadsheet where they can monitor which of their teachers have supplied a recommendation.  It is up to students to follow up on this – any student with fewer than 4 recommendations will not be selected for the team.
  • Attendance/punctuality
    • Is the student present every day?  
    • Does the student arrive early/on time?
    • Does the student email instructors if they are going to be late/leave early?
  • Skill level/willingness to try new things/willingness to learn
    • Does the student demonstrate a willingness to learn new things?  
    • Does the student make progress?  
    • Is the student practicing at home?
  • Academics
    • Does the student have at least a 2.0GPA?
    • Do the student’s current teachers think they would be a good fit for our program?
