Bart Tulbert Selected as Award of Excellence Recipient
CCS Fine Arts Coordinator
Bart Tulbert has been
selected to receive the
2019 South Central District
Bandmasters Association
Award of Excellence! Bart was
nominated and selected by his
peers to receive this honor.
Chris White, director of
bands at Hickory Ridge High
School, had many kind words
explaining why he chose to
nominate Bart. “Bart had
an amazing 17 years as
the director of bands at Mt.
Pleasant High School. His
marching bands annually
earned top honors at marching
events throughout our region,
and were Class A Champions
at multiple Bands of America
Regionals. His concert
ensembles consistently earned
Superior ratings at Concert
MPA events in Grade V and
VI literature, and his Winter
Guard were consistent medalists in CWEA events. He consistently
placed multiple students in the Cabarrus All-County Band, the SCDBA
All-District Band, and the NCBA All-State Honor Bands. His students
have marched with nationally recognized drum corps and winter
ensembles. He served as a
mentor teacher to several
student teachers. In addition,
he organized and ran one of
the largest and most successful
marching band competitions
in our area. Perhaps just as
important as his achievements
is the professionalism
he displayed while in the
classroom, and now as a
district administrator. He is
a man of honor who would
go the extra mile to help any
student or colleague.”
Bart will be recognized at the
North Carolina Bandmasters
Association (NCBA) as a part
of the In-Service Professional
Development Conference in
November. He will also be
recognized next January as a
part of the All-District Band
weekend. Congratulations,
Bart!
