Round Rock High School Band

Jacket & Letter/Lyre Policy/Point System

The Round Rock Band jacket is awarded to all juniors after completing three years in band. It is understood that the member will  be registered for their senior year, as the jacket is a 4^th year award. Students who are not a member of the RRHS Band at the time of the awarding of the jacket (homecoming game) will not receive a jacket.

Under the point system described below, it is possible to earn the jacket at the end of the sophomore year. The total number of points to qualify is 200 during the freshman and sophomore years.(If students have already been awarded a jacket from another area, this will apply to the band lyre or another letter also).
