All-Region Letter for Parents and Students DearBandParent,
You are receiving this letter because your son or daughter has been chosen and committed to audition for the Region 22 MS All-Region Band. The auditions are this November at Bel Air High School in room. All-Regionparticipants will need to get to Bel Air High School 1 hour before their audition time in order to warm-up in the Cafeteria, find their audition room and sign in at the designated audition room. It’s always hard to know when the auditionswill befinished, but the audition coordinator expects that they should be done within the hour of their audition. As soon as their audition is over, students may leave or be picked up. Parents are more the welcome to accompany students, however, once the students are taken into the audition room parents must wait outside of the door. We are not providing transportation to the event because of contest rules which state that Judges must not talk to competing students in order to keep auditions fair. As a judge, I am not aloud to speak to parents or students until the audition process is over. The studentswill beauditioning for one of the two All-Regionbands, and a concert will be held this November at Coronado High School for anystudents thatmake one of the bands. This is a greatopportunity for students to meet other outstanding players inthe region, and become better players themselves.The music they compete with is the same music that many musicians use to audition for college scholarships in the future. Students will audition in a privateroom for a judging panel, so parents and other studentsare not allowed in the room. I will be posting Audition Results on google class room and on our website as we receive them. Please allow at least until the end of the day for results to be posted!! If a student makes it into any of the two bands, the region coordinators will send a prompt letter to students and parents of a rehearsal schedule and concert times in November. Thank you again for all the support you give to our Rebel Band Students and can’t wait to see each student's hard work shine at this level and event!!!!! Our students are ready to represent our school and program with pride!!
