Students have the opportunity to audition for 2 different honors groups. Both of these ensembles are extracurricular and require an audition.
Honor bands are a great opportunity for students seeking an extra challenge outside of the regular school day. Participation in honors' ensembles looks great on future applications, not to mention they are a ton of fun!
Students who are selected to be in these honors ensembles get to spend two days performing challenging music outside of what we learn in class, with other honors students from around our county/district, directed by a hand-selected clinician! A concert is performed at the end of the 2 days.
Auditions include a list of scales and a short solo.
All-District has 1 additional scale, and also has a short sight reading portion of the audition.
Students who are interested in these groups should reach out to Ms. Parsons for help getting registered.
