A Reason to Celebrate

A total of 42 BISD fine arts music students in band, choir, jazz ensemble and orchestra earned chairs in the 2011 Region 28 Texas Music Educators Association (TMEA) Area G auditions held on Saturday, January 8, 2011. Choir students competed in Rockport, Texas and band students competed in Alice, Texas. BISD’s number of earned chairs increased 16 chairs from last year’s total of 26. Music students from every BISD high school dominated the region and placed BISD in the top 2% of Texas. These outstanding students will perform in the All-State Band or Choir Concerts to be held at the TMEA Conference in San Antonio on February 12, 2011.
