Director Information and Online Registration
Directors may register students using the online nomination and registration form. Applicants are accepted by director recommendation only. The registration deadline is Friday, November 6. Positions in the honor bands are limited and will be filled in the order the nominations are received.
Each director should select a maximum of 10 deserving upperclassmen to participate in the event. (it is encouraged to nominate a percussionist as part of the ten since Mr. Sim’s music is often very percussion-intensive). Availability is limited so please choose your students as soon as possible and confirm their ability to attend prior to registering them.
