Just wanted to share a joy for our program. This past Saturday, BHS was represented by 9 students at ATSSB Area Auditions. This is the last step in their path to All-State Band. This is the highest number of students that have qualified for area competition as far back as we have researched. It is quite an accomplishment to qualify, since students need to place in the top 2-5 (Depending on the instrument) of the order in 4A at Region Band auditions. Unfortunately, none of the students were able to advance from Area to State, as they only take the top 1-4 performers. However, none of these students are seniors, so they will have the opportunity to try again next year! Please join me in congratulating these students on thier accomplishments

I am pleased to share that we finished strong at the 2024 Choir Area Auditions in Waco @ China Spring HS last weekend. All BHS Choir students placed well and not a single one of our 7 students were in the bottom ranks!
We have a Small School All-State BASS and 3 Alternates to the Choir!
This continues to add to our historical TMEA All-State showings and makes the first time that BHS Choir has had 4 consecutive years of All-State musicians in a row!
2.6% of students entering the TMEA process make All-State. This year Region 7 Vocal only received 4 of the 16 chairs (total) in the Central Choral Area Audition and we are blessed to have one of them. Truly, I cannot express how immensely proud I am of all these individuals for working hard and how excited I am for our All-Stater!
Join me in congratulating the following students:
(12) John Porterfield- 3rd Chair All-State Bass
(12) Elliya Datuin- 2nd Alternate, 6th chair Soprano
(10) Katie Miltner- 2nd Alternate, 6th chair Alto
(10) Thomas Veron- 2nd Alternate, 6th chair Tenor
(12) Cas Castillo- 9th chair Tenor
(10) Claire Longley- 11th chair Alto
(12) Lucas Lyne- 17th chair Bass
CONGRATS to ALL who participated at the Area Level.
Texas All-State process is tough, these students represented BHS with Excellence at every audition round!
