2017 -2018 Pinellas All County Middle School Honor Band Nomination Form
Middle School Band Directors,
PCMEA and Pinellas County Schools are continuing the Pinellas All County Middle School Honor Band. This second band is nomination-based and will be made up of students from all of the Pinellas County middle schools. We are proud to have Luis Sammy Alvarez, Director of Bands at Ben Hill Middle, as our clinician this year.
Rehearsals will be the same time as the regular All County Middle School Band, and the culminating performance will be a combined band and orchestra concert on January 30th. Times are to be determined based on the schedule.
The nomination process is slightly different this year. Teachers are free to (and should) nominate students who may be auditioning for the other All County Band. Though students who audition will be considered anyway, submitting a nomination allows us to ensure that a director's top choices make the ensemble. Students can be nominated using the form below; please submit a form online for every student you wish to nominate.
Every school should nominate at least 3 students by Friday, November 17th. This is necessary in order to ensure that every middle school in Pinellas County is represented. Students who audition, but do not make the regular All County Middle School Band, will automatically be nominated for the Honor Band.
Students will need to return the new participation agreement before their first rehearsal and have a field trip permission form on file (click links for copies).
Thank you for your participation in this exciting ensemble!
(Remember to nominate "color" instrumentalists.)
