Banquet Dress Code – Wondering what you should wear? This fun filled year end event will strike the balance of semi-formal with casual. We encourage students, parents and siblings to wear dressier clothes, more like date-night casual. Jackets with jeans, shirts with buttons, dresses and suits will fit in great and the attire needs to be appropriate clothes per the Dress Code on pages 54-55 in the High School Handbook. However, we would like to point out MOST students and parents dress up for this occasion. It is, after all, a banquet and celebration.

BAND TOGETHER

2025-2026

In supporting a Jenks Trojan Pride student, your contribution directly benefits that student. Through the “Band Together” program, students are asking 10 people to sponsor them for $20 each. This money will go directly into their individual band account and be used for trip costs, uniform fees, competition fees, etc. More importantly, your donation will help contribute toward a lifetime of memories both on and off the field. Thank you for your support.
