What does it mean to be a Model Bobcat?


​Every week, each music class votes for a student who is working hard to be their "Bobcat B.E.S.T."within the Music Department.  Students who are awarded Model Bobcat (AKA Golden Stand) often demonstrate significant efforts in the practice and study of music and should model behaviors such as:
  • Coming to rehearsals prepared and focused
  • "Failing Forward" to improve musicianship and technique
  • Inspiring peers in terms of Passion and Performance
  • Teaching and leading other students
  • Embracing challenges
  • Providing Specific and Constructive Feedback to the ensemble and peers
  • Outstanding Musicianship and skill on instrument and repertoire

What are the benefits to being a Model Bobcat?


When voted Model Bobcat, instrumental students get to use the Golden Stand for the week and vocal students get to use the Golden Folder.  Model Bobcats are recognized on a weekly basis in our Newsletter, and at concerts (when they perform with the Golden Stand or Folder).

A tally will be kept throughout the year and the student who most frequently received the award will be Awarded MVP at the Music Department Awards Banquet in June (see Events Calendar for specific date and time).
