BrynLeigh Childers, a member of the Lubbock-Cooper High School Varsity Mixed Choir, will perform with the Texas All-State Mixed Choir in San Antonio, Saturday, February 11, 2023, at the Henry B. González Convention Center as part of the 2023 Texas Music Educators Association Clinic/Convention.
BrynLeigh was chosen for this prestigious honor through a competitive process held this year across the state at District, Region, and Area levels. BrynLeigh sings at school under the direction of Mary Lynn Hokett, who is a member of the Texas Music Educators Association, a 14,000+ member organization headquartered in Austin. This is BrynLeigh’s first time to perform as a member of a TMEA All-State organization. BrynLeigh is the child of Marla Childers Abney and Koby Abney.
High school students selected to perform in the All-State concerts have competed through auditions to qualify at the state level. All-State is the highest honor a Texas music student can receive. 1,875 students are selected through a process that began with over 70,000 students from around the state vying for this honor to perform in one of 18 ensembles.
Texas Music Educators Association sponsors the Texas All-State competition. This competitive process begins throughout the state in auditions hosted by 33 TMEA Regions. Individual musicians perform selected music for a panel of judges who rank each instrument or voice part. From this ranking, a select group of musicians advances from their Region to compete against musicians from other areas in eight TMEA Area competitions. The highest-ranking musicians judged at the TMEA Area competitions qualify to perform in a TMEA All-State music group. Only the top 2.6% of musicians who initially audition become All-State musicians.
These All-State students participate in four days of rehearsals directed by nationally recognized conductors during the TMEA Clinic/Convention. Their performances for thousands of attendees bring this extraordinary event to a close. For the All-State concert and conductor information, go to the Performances section of www.tmea.org/convention.
Founded in 1921, Texas Music Educators Association is an association of over 14,000 members dedicated to promoting excellence in music education. Go to www.tmea.org/convention for more information.
Mrs. Townley's Central Elementary third graders are creating slabs as bases for their upcoming art project! To quote our friend Sedrick, "This is the funnest activity I've ever done in my whole life!"
Reminder: Monday, January 16 is a student and staff holiday across LCISD!
West Elementary kicked off the second semester with a display of student and parent quotes reminding teachers that they are so loved and appreciated!
New Hope Academy student Seth Byers is a hero to the Mosako family and the LCP family! Seth noticed a fire in the backyard of the Mosako home, nearing their house. Without hesitation, he entered the backyard and began trying to contain the fire, protecting not only the house but also the Mosako family, who were unaware of what was happening.
"I can never truly express the gratitude I have for him. He went above and beyond to help a stranger and our family will forever be grateful!"
Congratulations to LCISD FFA's Kaislynn Ethridge, who won Reserve Grand Champion Jr. Market Goat at the Arizona National Show!
