All Contests are sanctioned by the Texas Color Guard Circuit and Marching Auxiliaries. As soon as any information is available on times for contests, it will be posted and/or handed to the students. The website for these two organizations are: www.texascolorguardcircuit.org and www.maux.com. Please feel free to browse any of these websites as they will be helpful in answering some of your questions-especially directions to the contest sites. All parents planning to go to any of our events as official chaperones must have already registered under the VIPs program for HISD. Please visit www.houstonisd.org for more information.

The students of the Bellaire High School Color Guard have an opportunity to compete in the solo category at the Regional and National levels. They will have to pay an entry fee and they are responsible for buying and/or borrowing their own costume and equipment. Once they are entered the money is non-refundable-even if they become ineligible because of grades or behavior or they do not have their solo complete by the contest date. The student is also responsible for being at their scheduled practice time.
