  • Concert Evaluations

    Concert Evaluations for the first semester are due on Friday, January 11. Students who are trying for 6th Grade Honor Medal or 7th & 8th Grade Honor Band should turn in 3 evaluations from the first semester, all other students are required to do 2 from first semester. Please turn the form in to Mr. Scott.
  • Region Auditions (7th & 8th Grade and selected 6th Graders)

    The Region Audition Checklist and tickets will be given to students this week and are posted on our website. We will receive an All-State call-back list (tentative Monday 1/14 or Tuesday 1/15). This will be followed by a preliminary list for Region 4 and Concert Bands (tentative 1/16 or 1/17). This list will not be finalized until after All-State Auditions on January 26. YOU MUST keep your calendar open for the Region Clinic (February 22nd & 23rd) and All-State Clinic (March 7 - 10) until the final list for All-State and Region 4 are posted (tentative January 29). If your student is not on the preliminary list, there is a potential that they could be seated for the Concert band once students are selected for All-State.
