Nominating educators, please keep in mind these guidelines:

  • 5th and 6th grade students enrolled in your choir are eligible.

  • Nominate the top 15% of your choir. ex. 125 students 18-19 nominations

  • Make and effort to have an even number of Soprano and Altos

  • Rank the students with your highest students being number 1. You may consider your highest soprano and 1 and your highest alto as 2 and alternate between the two sections until you have reached your max number of nominees.

  • Students need to be well-prepared with the literature before arriving the day of the festival.
