Congratulations to the Ricebird Band at the All-Region Band auditions. We are proud to announce we had 3 students make the All-Region Band. On Baritone Saxophone, Seth Mallory made 2nd Chair concert band. On trumpet, Sofia Mclain made 9th Chair symphonic band. And, El Campo High School now houses the 1st Chair flute player in the entire region, Gabriella Sardelich. Gabby and Sofia will attend the Area competition in Orange Grove, Texas, on January 7th for the opportunity to make the All-State band. Please give these outstanding students much praise and adulation! They have earned it!
