Each fall, over 20,000 Texas high school vocalists begin the audition process for the All-State Choir. Deer Park High School recently took seven students to the audition, and four of them placed.  Congratulations to seniors Ris Kemp (alto 2, mixed choir), Bryce Royall (tenor, mixed choir), and Amber Strange (alto 2, mixed choir) and freshman Jakeb Kurth (first alternate).  These students will travel to San Antonio next month to perform with the 2022 Texas All- State Choir.

Congratulations to Deer Park High School piccolo player Carissa Dixon, who earned a seat in the all-state band! On Saturday, Carissa captured first chair in the area competition, which automatically makes her a member of the all-state band. As one of only eight piccolo players in the all-state band, Carissa will travel to San Antonio in February to perform with the group at the Texas Music Educators Association convention. Carissa says she practices at least 10 hours a week!
