District Honor Band: Last week to sign up!

It is around this time every year that we begin talking about District Honor Band and All-State Honor Band auditions. We have such a talented group this year and I am excited to begin working on this music.
Each school in Georgia is zoned to a specific district. This is an audition-based group that collects the top band students in our district and combines them into an “all-region” type of band. Students learn under the baton of a guest conductor in Ringgold, Georgia, and play difficult and enjoyable music with 80 or so new friends! Auditions are on Saturday, December 2nd at Cass Middle School.

District Honor Band participation and All-State Band Participation are looked at very highly by colleges and employers because of the extra time and the personal responsibility it takes to successfully audition and make one of these prestigious bands. Should you make it,  DHB is February 8th-10th in Ringgold, Georgia.

Students wishing to audition for the District Honor Band must pay a fee of $5 to participate. Students who wish to audition for All-State will speak to Ms. Menendez individually. 

Please have this filled out by Friday, September 22nd.
