We are excited to announce and recognize our first Sullivan Band Program Section of the Week honors for the 2026 - 2027 school year!
6th Grade Percussion received Section of the Week honors this week for their ability to perform their first three notes as well as roll on their instruments. This was a big week for the 6th Grade Band as it was their first on their instruments.
7th/8th Grade Trumpets received SotW honors for their consistent performance and note accuracy in their sight reading this week. They have also done an excellent job in rehearsing The Star Spangled Banner in preparation for their performance with the HS Marching Band on 9/18.
Finally, 8th Grader Jesse Jones received the Golden Stand. He has demonstrated excellent performance technique throughout the week in the music that we have worked on. The Golden Stand is a new traveling trophy that recognizes a student who has had an outstanding week in Band. That student gets to use the Golden Stand in rehearsal throughout the next week of classes.
