Twenty-two Mt. Pleasant Junior High School band students have qualified for the Texas Music Educators Association (TMEA) Region IV Middle School All-Region Band. Thirteen students qualified for the Concert Band and nine qualified for the Symphonic Band.<\/p>\n
\u201cI am so proud of all the MPJH students who auditioned for the All-Region band,\u201d said MPJHS Band Director Karen Luckett. \u201cWe took 33 students to Pine Tree High School for the auditions. Each of them had to play a piece solo before a panel of judges which can be a very scary thing for any musician but can be particularly so for a junior high student. I am pleased that so many of them auditioned. I congratulate them all whether or not they made the All-Region Band.\u201d<\/p>\n
These 22 Mt. Pleasant Junior High students, along with those who made the HS Jazz and Freshman Region bands will perform in the TMEA Region IV Middle School\/Freshman\/Jazz Clinic & Concert on Saturday, December 12, 2015 at Marshall High School.<\/p>\n
