On March 6, 2019, the varsity band went to UIL Concert & Sightreading Contest at Groesbeck High School. The judges gave the band a Superior rating overall in Concert and a superior rating in Sightreading.  Along with the superior ratings at marching contest, this constitutes a Sweepstakes UIL Award for all superior ratings for the whole year.  To the best of my knowledge, this is only the 3^rd Sweepstakes Award in school history.  I’m very proud of the effort and progress the students have made this year. I look forward to what the future brings for the Wortham Bulldog Band.
