All State Musicians from Andrew and Stagg honored

The School Board honored student musicians for their selection to the prestigious Illinois Music Education Association All-State Music Conference. Each fall, high school music students in choir, orchestra and band audition in October to qualify for All-District music honors. ILMEA’s nine districts statewide select the best students from their high school programs within their boundaries. Students who receive the honor of All-District then move on to perform at the All-District festival in November, and the top performers of this group are selected to represent their districts at the ILMEA All-State Music Festival in January of each year.
Congratulations to these students and their directors!

Andrew

This unique program is designed to provide information and inspiration to young people interested in pursuing a career as a professional music educator. Only 55 students statewide were selected to participate.

Sandburg’s ILMEA students will be recognized next month as they had a conflict with attending the Board meeting last night.
