After passing in music, please have the students from each class nominate seniors for the john phillip sousa award. This award is given to the most dedicated and skilled student in the band program. The person must be a senior. Have students raise their hands and one at a time tell you the names of seniors they would like to be nominated. Have one student record the names and give the list to a student aide. They will type up a ballot to be used on monday.

PLEASE MAKE SURE THE STUDENTS NOMINATE THE JOHN PHILLIP SOUSA AWARD CANDIDATES BEFORE THE END OF THE HOUR, EVEN IF YOU HAVE TO STOP PASSING IN THE MUSIC EARLY. THEY CAN FINISH UP ON MONDAY.
