WEEKLY UPDATE 4/24/2023

GOOD MORNING EAGLES! I hope everyone had a super good testing week last week, as we have another week of testing for various subjects this week. While that’s going on, here are the following things going on this week:

  • MONDAY: Drum major practice 3:15-4:15​
  • WEDNESDAY: Drum major practice 3:15-4:15
  • THURSDAY: Introduction lesson for Percussion 3:00-4:30
        And Drum Major Auditions prelims 3:30-5:00
  • FRIDAY: Drum Major Finals Auditions 3:30-5:00

HIGH SCHOOL BAND REGISTRATION: It is almost time to get our high school band registration going! If you are enrolled in high school band, there are several things that we need to get you started, which are physicals, calendar, uniforms, forms, and much more! There are two days as to which you can attend registration:
  • May 8th (high school)
  • May 9th (incoming freshman)

If you have a conflict with a specific date and need to make a special arrangement, just email me at [email protected] and we can arrange something.

You can go online and register today! Go to https://www.atascocitaband.com/register.html and begin filling out all of the online Google forms. They are ready. There are some things that are not ready yet - calendar, webstore, etc. We are still working on those. If you get your online Google Forms submitted early, you won’t have to do it the day of and you can save a lot of time!

LEADERSHIP APPLICATIONS and INTERVIEWS: Applications for next year’s leadership team has concluded, and we had over 60 students apply to be on the leadership team. This is a huge deal, that many students are interested in stepping up and applying to serve for a higher purpose. While we love this, we need all candidates to know that not everyone will be selected, as there are a limited number of positions available. The positions will be determined by the following criteria:
  • Your responses to the essay questions
  • Your grades and discipline throughout the year
  • Your interview with the band directors
  • Responses from the teacher evaluations

DRUM MAJOR AUDITIONS: If you are auditioning, auditions are THIS THURSDAY for preliminary and FRIDAY for the finals. Auditions will take place after school, and you will want to wear comfortable clothing for Thursday’s tryouts.
  • If you advance to the final round, please wear your blue Atascocita Band shirt and black band shorts for the final audition.

CLASS PLACEMENT EVALUATIONS: High school evaluations start next week, May 1st. Students will be required to play the following two things:
  • Scales (chosen at the day of the audition)
  • ANY piece you want to play. It can be your solo, region music, an etude, basics, band music, whatever you like. This will be your opportunity to show me what YOU can do!
