Welcome to the Home Page of the
2009 WMEA Junior All-State Honor Groups.

The WMEA Junior All-State Honor Group application and audition packets are now posted!  Junior All-State serves eighth graders each year.

This process will be done entirely online this year.  It is recommended that you quickly get online and become familiar with the procedures and make sure that your membership is up-to-date.

Here are the details for our teacher members:

I - Download two items from the table below - 1) the appropriate 2009 WMEA Junior All-State Application Packet, and 2) the appropriate Audition Materials.

PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING CLARIFICATION/CHANGE (9/9/2008)

PERCUSSION APPLICANTS NEED TO AUDITION ON TWO OF THE THREE INSTRUMENTS.  ONLY ONE IS NOT SUFFICIENT.

II - Log in to WMEA's Member Events area and set up your school's online application pages.  Follow the online instructions to set up your online school information. 

Please note that we are not able to accept student application or audition uploads until mid-September.  The due date for applications and auditions is October 20, 2008.

III - Make sure your MENC membership is up to date.  If it isn't, join MENC now.  You will not be able to access the online system if you aren't a current member, and your students will not be eligible to apply.  It is strongly advised to join immediately and avoid paying with a purchase order.  MENC does not update your membership until they actually receive a check.  If you aren't currently a member, join MENC now.

 


The WMEA Junior All-State Groups serve band, choir and orchestra students in eighth grade.  Students audition for the opportunity to perform with the best eighth grade musicians in Washington under the baton of highly-respected conductors.

Audition materials will be posted each year in the spring.  These are materials only and not the final application packets, which will be available in the fall.
