Shepard students qualify for IMEA All-District

More than 2,000 students auditioned.

Shepard High School students Nathan Morgan and Avalyn Krastin earned selection to the Illinois Music Educators Association District 1 festivals.

Ava, also an IMEA All-District selection last year, won selection as a Soprano 1 and Nathan for trumpet.

"These students were chosen out of more than 2000 competitors via a very challenging virtual audition. This is a wonderful accomplishment, amid all the chaos of this year,” said Shepard choir director Roland Hatcher.
