The Clovis High School Freshman Academy Jazz Bands also competed at the Eastern New Mexico University Jazz Fest, securing a Second Place overall, Best Trombone Section and Best Trumpet Section, with Nathan Bjorklund recognized as Most Outstanding Soloist.
In performance assessment, bands are adjudicated in two different categories: Concert Performance and Sight Reading. Groups are graded on a 100-point scale and groups given a score of 90 or higher are considered “Superior” in their rating.
The CMS Music Department would like to thank District administration and the Board of Education for their continued support of our band programs.
CONGRATULATIONS TO THE STUDENTS AND DIRECTORS!
