Mark Keene leads the Briscoe JH Honor Band 

The Briscoe Junior High Honor Band is one of the select musicals groups chosen for the Foundation for Music Education’s Mark of Excellence program.

The Honor Band was chosen as a Commended Winner.

The Mark of Excellence project seeks to recognize and award outstanding achievement in performance by high school and middle school bands, choirs and orchestras. The project gathers entries from throughout the United States and provides valuable feedback for all entrants. A unique competitive environment is created which allows ensembles to compare their performance quality to other outstanding groups from across the country. The top 25 percent of entrants are recognized as National Winners, with the second 25 percent named as Commended Winners.
