Mr. Reynolds was presented the plaque on Thursday, April 20th, at the 64th Annual Tennessee Music Education Association conference. In order to qualify for this award from the Tennessee Bandmaster’s Association, band students have to meet certain requirements throughout the school year. This includes receiving a superior rating in marching band performance at a TBA sanctioned marching competition, and at least the top performing concert ensemble receiving a superior rating at their annual Concert Performance Assessment. In 2019-2020, the Rossview Marching Band of Pride received a superior at Stewart County High School’s Band Between the Lakes Invitational, and during the spring of 2020, both the RHS Wind Ensemble and Symphonic Band received straight superior ratings at the Middle Tennessee Band and Orchestra Association’s Concert Performance Assessment.

The Clarksville-Montgomery County School System, in partnership with the Clarksville-Montgomery County Industrial Development Board, will host the annual Senior Hiring Event on Wednesday, May 3, 2023, at the Wilma Rudolph Event Center. Students interested in participating must have their parent/guardian permission slip returned to their school counselor by Friday, April 21.

The Hiring Event will showcase jobs currently available in the Clarksville-Montgomery County community to CMCSS seniors graduating as part of the Class of 2023. Each year, the event introduces quality candidates to local business and industry leaders. Recent graduates are often an underutilized pool of candidates for recruitment efforts.

The event will run from 8:30 a.m. – 3 p.m., with schools visiting at scheduled times throughout the day. Human Resource personnel from each participating business will share available position overviews, salary and benefit information, as well as application and hiring protocols. Students will receive information on company culture, work environment, skills, and training opportunities.

The following businesses have been confirmed as participants in the event, and each will have at least five full-time, entry-level positions available at the time of the event. Participating companies include:

• Hankook
• Montgomery County Government
• Byard Construction
• United Rentals
• LG Electronics
• City of Clarksville
• Agero
• NCI Drilling
• OEM Tube
• Montgomery County Sheriff’s Dept.
• MW/MB
• Clarksville-Montgomery County School System
• Hendrickson
• Microvast
• Nyrstar
• TN Dept. of Corrections
• ServPro

If students meet position requirements, and complete the application and interview processes of individual companies following the event, they have the potential to cross the high school graduation stage and walk directly into full-time employment opportunities in June.
