The graduating senior may be presently attending a public high school or be home-schooled. The school in which the student intends to study may be either a two-year community college or a four-year university program.

The auditions, which are open to the public, will be held at 9 a.m. April 25 in the fine arts building at Highland Community College. The auditions are open to student musicians in voice, strings, piano, woodwinds, brasses, percussion and organ.
