A note from Mrs. Conard: FBA has an outstanding band program and students. I am always very honored to get to work with such talented young kids. As it comes time to think about enrolling for next year, I do hope the results shown below will help you see that FBA is a great choice for your child. I also ask for you to pray that our band program continues to grow and stay strong and competitive.
I put together a chart of how the FBA middle school band students compared to students from other private and public schools in our region based on the region audition results. I included all the schools that brought between 15-25 students to audition. (Names of schools have been deleted.)
I am happy to report:
FBA has the highest number of students that placed in the Symphonic Band (the top group), and we are among the top 3 performing schools!
| Sym Band | Con Band | Total | Percentage | # Students | ||
| School A | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0.00% | 15 | |
| School B | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0.00% | 22 | |
| School C | 2 | 0 | 2 | 10.00% | 20 | |
| School D | 1 | 1 | 2 | 11.11% | 18 | |
| School E | 0 | 3 | 3 | 15.00% | 20 | |
| School F | 1 | 2 | 3 | 15.00% | 20 | |
| School G | 1 | 2 | 3 | 18.75% | 16 | |
| School H | 4 | 5 | 9 | 39.13% | 23 | |
| School I | 3 | 8 | 11 | 44.00% | 25 | |
| First Baptist | 6 | 4 | 10 |
| 21 | |
| School K | 5 | 7 | 12 | 48.00% | 25 |
You might ask yourself, "What about the schools that brought more than 25 students?" One school brought the largest group with 75 students. This is how they compared:
| Sym Band | Con Band | Total | Percentage | # Students |
| 8 | 9 | 17 | 22.67% | 75 |
While quantity can be impressive, quality is what we continue to strive for. Thank you, God, for blessing us beyond measure! Way to go, FBA!
