2018 HONOR BAND
CANCELLED

Picture
🚨ALL JSU HONOR BAND PARTICIPANTS🚨
It is with great sadness that after 42 consecutive years of the JSU Honor Band, we must cancel the 2018 JSU Honor Band Festival scheduled for May 10-12. The buildings that house our rehearsal sites as well as the Pete Matthews Coliseum that houses the concerts have sustained storm damage and may not be repaired before May 10th. Have no fear, the JSU Honor Band Festival will return in 2019 stronger than ever before! #jsustrong

Any and all payments will be refunded starting Monday, March 26th.

 ||BAND DIRECTOR INFORMATION||

HONOR BAND REGISTRATION CHECK LIST
When the student registers, he or she will be asked to list the email
address of the their Director (that's you :)
In a few weeks you will receive an email with your login credentials for the event because you have students in the event system who have listed your email address and you as their director. At that time you can log in and you will see a listing of your students and will have the opportunity to rank-order them and comment privately with your recommendation of each student. You will also see and approve/confirm as valid any chaperone who listed your email address as their Director.


**In the severe case a director is unable to provide evaluations, a school administrator or counselor can provide this information for the student. Just put their email in the registration.

Registration for band directors staying on campus for JSU Honor Band will occur after your students are accepted. TalentSpotz will notify you with this information closer to that date.

(All payments are due by April 13, 2018)
