This rating shows the outstanding levels of musical excellence and preparation from students and the band program.

In addition, the ensemble was recognized by the American School Band Directors Association for achieving a perfect composite score of 21.This honor places the Colonel Band among the highest-performing ensembles and gives them the honor of “Band of Highest Distinction.”

Congratulations to the Christian County Colonel Band on this achievement at their last Concert Assessment event, before they combine next year into the Christian County Tiger Band.
