2027 Annual Conference Student Involvement Form

KSBA is accepting applications for student performers at our 2027 Annual Conference. These performances are always a highlight for the 1,000+ event attendees.

KSBA seeks a variety of student entertainment acts during our general sessions and meals.

We are also looking for a student/students/student organization that would like to lead our student-led devotional service on Sunday morning.

Individual schools represented at Annual Conference will receive a $500 donation from KSBA for their student support services.

All submissions must be received by Dec. 18, 2026. Groups will be notified of acceptance by Jan. 11, 2027, to allow time for travel arrangements.

Preferred date to perform (Check all that apply)

Performances are typically 10-15 minutes but may vary. The times listed above are for conference sessions during which students will perform. These times do not include student performer arrival times, setup times, etc. Participating districts are expected to arrive at least 30-45 minutes in advance of session to allow enough time for warmups, setup and final walk through of event details. Performances may begin 5-10 minutes prior to the beginning of the assigned session, although this can vary. Exact performance times will be shared when confirming participation. For Friday's Opening Session, extra consideration will be given to performances that select General Performance and National Anthem and My Old Kentucky Home Performance

Audiovisual/Staging Needs

KSBA and the event space can provide the very basics, such as a singular power source and/or an audio plug-in for a keyboard. The stage can also be set with 1-2 wireless handheld microphones, and/or a basic choral microphone setup, however such requests must be made well in advance. Additional A/V requests made on the day of the conference cannot be honored. The participating district is responsible for any equipment or instruments it brings. Any accompanying music track(s) must be provided in advance in a digital format (MP3). We are unable to play CD's or plug into external devices such as iPhones or laptops.

Name of Adult Leader

District is responsible for providing sufficient supervision of any students they bring to the conference. Students must be supervised at all times while at conference.
