Student Director Applications

The 2008-2009 Student Director application forms are now available for interested CHS band students. The application experience is not limited to next year’s seniors. Underclassmen may apply to gain the experience and show the band your interests and leadership. There are several underclassmen who will make very good student directors in the future. I encourage and challenge all of the CHS band members to consider applying. The CHS Student Director is one of the most visible student roles at CHS. Please contact Mr. Price for an application.
