*AUDITIONS*
Auditions for nest year's ensembles are taking place starting next week.
If you desire to be in Symphonic Band, Wind Ensemble or Advanced Percussion next year, you must audition. The days and time ranges for the auditions are on the audition page and below. You do not need to be at the audition the entire time, once you are done, you are free to go. *INCOMING FRESHMEN* Please email me at gilletterj@staffordschools.net to schedule a time range when you can audition and I will put you on the list. *Concert Band and Jazz Workshop do not require an audition.* Results are posted under the auditions tab above. Great job to those that auditioned. There are still vacancies in Symphonic Band if you are still interested in auditioning and missed the date.
