On October 26 & 29, band students from Denton ISD’s middle schools performed in the Texas Music Educators Association Region 2 Middle School Band auditions, competing with students from Argyle, Lake Dallas, Lewisville, and Northwest ISDs. We are proud to announce that 22 outstanding Denton ISD students were selected for the TMEA Region 2 MS Bands.

These students who have made the All-Region MS Bands will perform in the TMEA Region 2 MS Band Clinic and Concert on Saturday, December 10 at Argyle MS. Congratulations to these outstanding students for this achievement. Many thanks to their directors and private lesson teachers for helping these students prepare for the auditions.
