NEW!  Information for rising 9th Grade Band Students to Atholton High School
http://www.atholtonbands.org/Atholton/Middle_Schools.html

This specific link will provide specific instructions for the auditions. The auditions are for Wind Ensemble and/or Symphonic Band. If students just want to be in Concert Band then they do not need to audition.  They need to prepare music of Grade IV or higher and do the Scale Etude (see link on the website). Percussionists do NOT need to do the scale etude but they do need to perform on Snare, Mallets, and Timpani. If students have prepared All-State auditions, that music is acceptable as well.
