Paris High School Honors Band Members with its Highest Awards


Posted Date: 06/16/2020

Each year the Paris High School Band gives out awards to outstanding band members who have gone above and beyond to build their craft in music. Plaques hang in the band hall to honor these students as well as past recipients.
The Floyd and Irene Weger Award is given to two seniors each year who have exhibited ideals of a Paris Band student. This year this award went to Austin Whitaker and Jacie Anderson.

The John Philip Sousa Award recognizes superior musicianship and outstanding dedication and is given nationally for a band program’s most outstanding musician. It was created with the approval of Helen Sousa Albert and Priscilla Sousa, daughters of the famous composer and bandmaster. This year the award was given to two band members, Zachary Nation and Jocelyn Ting.

Quick Tip Information

Quick Tip is a support system that allows students to communicate with school administrators. While the district already has many programs to help students deal with challenges such as bullying behaviors, stress, peer pressure, and family problems, Quick Tip helps break the code of silence often experienced by students because it allows them to report concerns to administrators anonymously.
