Scotland County Virtual Marching Band Competition
The Rams Band under the leadership of Les Aeschliman, and the Rams Color Guard directed by Jeanne Steen, entered the Scotland County Virtual Marching Band Competition. During the football game on October 2, 2020, a recording of their performance, “Appalachian Spring” by Aaron Copland, was made.
The recordings of each school were judged virtually in the categories of Field Show, Parade, Indoor Color Guard, and Indoor Drumline.
The awards were announced on October 7, 2020. The Color Guard won the “Outstanding Color Guard Award” for Class 2A. The Band placed third in the Class 2A Field Show out of five schools competing. Schuyler was one of four high schools selected to be highlighted, during the Awards Show.
