Updating the Performance Conference for Schools and Directors
Keeping conference information up to date is essential for a smooth season. This article focuses on updates related to the TMEA/UIL Music Region and Area Alignment, which occurs every two years, although there may be other reasons to update conference information.
Keeping things current is crucial for:
- Schools must be correctly assigned to their respective conferences for all UIL events that offer a pathway to state-level competition, such as Marching Band and Solo & Ensemble. Keeping assignment information current ensures that every student has a fair opportunity to compete at the appropriate level.
- Correct conference assignments ensure that all judges' comment sheets contain the correct information for the schools that are performing in Concert and Sightreading evaluations.
- Just like a well-tuned instrument, current information keeps everything running smoothly throughout the season.
NOTE: Keeping your conference information current is an important task and is ultimately the responsibility of the Executive Secretaries.
