Hi, hey, hello!
Congratulations to the following students for participating in the SIUE Bi-State Honor Band Festival this past weekend: Alex Huang Anna Scott Jake Fromme Brayden Shirley Quinlan Radcliff Ricky Beck Emily Bloodworth Alex Hornsey The SIUE Bi-State Honor Band Festival is a band festival hosted at SIUE with participants from schools in Illinois and Missouri around the Metro-East area. Students are nominated by their directors based on ability, work ethic, dedication, and previous honors. All of the nominated students auditioned at SIUE on Friday and were placed into bands based on this audition. Alex Huang, Quinlan, and Ricky auditioned into Mr. Ahlmeyer's festival band, Anna, Emily, and Alex Hornsey auditioned into Mrs. Korak's festival band, and Jake and Brayden auditioned into the honor band conducted by Dr. David Holsinger, a well known composer of band literature. They all performed well chosen literature during their concerts on Saturday night and created some beautiful music. There isn't much going on this week, but please take a look at GoogleClassroom and begin working on the 3rd quarter playing test. This playing test will change seating for the spring concert. We will not be playing at the rescheduled girls basketball vs. Highland this Wednesday. I will be out of town on Thursday and Friday of this week. I may not answer emails automatically, but I will get to them as soon as I can. If you need to contact me, please send me a remind or email, as I will not be able to check my office phone.
