It is a historic day for the Harmony Junior High Band! These students traveled to Gilmer High School today to perform at the UIL Region Middle School Concert and Sight Reading evaluation. They received a Superior rating in both Concert and Sight Reading, earning them the FIRST EVER Sweepstakes award for Harmony Junior High (and the second ever for Harmony ISD as a whole).
We couldn't be more proud of how hard these students have worked to achieve their goals and are so elated that they were able to bring such a prestigious honor back to our school. These are the future leaders of our program and we cannot wait to see what successes they bring for themselves and for the Harmony ISD Band program!
