Congratulations to the Richland High School Wind Ensemble for advancing to the finals of the UIL State 6A Honor Band Competition. They placed first in both the regional and area-level contests, advancing them to the final round of competition on July 21 in San Antonio. Bands from across the state submit recordings that are judged at each level with the ultimate winner having a featured performance at the 2017 Texas Music Educators Association Convention.

Best of luck to the RHS Wind Ensemble and their directors Jason Bird, Mike Pickrell, Scott Dupre, and Evan Blackard.
