The Color Guard Team is a very important part of the Atlantic High School Band Program. Color Guard is available to any Atlantic High School student grades 9 through 12. During the Summer the students prepare for the coming school year, learning the fundamentals of dance techniques. In the Fall, they perform with the Shark Regiment Marching Band at Football Games and Competitions. These performances incorporate the use of Dance with the color and precision of Rifles, Sabres or Flags. They use their learned techniques to create an entertaining, artful, and award winning show.
