Please congratulate Rachel Kost on an outstanding achievement. Rachel was awarded the Outstanding Performer award at the Texas State Solo and Ensemble contest this past May.

Out of those 25,000 students, 287 were selected as Outstanding Performers. Congratulations Rachel on such an amazing achievement! We are very proud of you!

Farewell Mr. A!

Thank you to everyone who was able to make it out to Mr A's going away reception! What a crazy turnout!!! The line wrapped around the cafeteria and we actually ran over the 3 hour allotted time! I know there were many more who wanted to come, but had prior commitments they just couldn't change. We all love you Mr A and we are going to miss you more than you'll ever know!!! BOTH of you leave a legacy and big shoes to fill. Because of your leadership we WILL survive our loss and thrive in spite of our loss because we want to make you proud!
