MPA Performance

Congratulations are deserved to the SAHS Wind Ensemble.  The performed for the Central District-West Music Performance Adjudication (MPA) at Asheboro High School on Monday 23, 2015,  They were judged by 3 judges who listened to the band's prepared pieces and gave a rating based on the criteria in their scoring rubric.  A portion of the MPA performance is a Sight-Reading selection. The director and students are given a piece of music no one has rehearsed before, given 5 minutes to look over the piece without playing, and then perform for a judge.  The rating system consists of 5 categories.

5-Poor
4-Below Average
3- Average
2- Excellent
1- Superior

The Southern Alamance has received a rating of Superior for the last four years.  We are all very proud of them and their accomplishments.
