TMEA -Creekview's A Cappella Choir Performs!!

Good afternoon and I hope everyone had a great weekend! Please indulge me while I share a bit about my weekend in San Antonio at this year's Texas Music Educators Association Clinic/Convention. What a treat it was to be a part of our A Cappella Choir as they performed at TMEA on Friday. I could not be more proud of a group of students and teachers. Not only were our students focused and prepared, but they also behaved so very well! A few of our students even wrote and left thank you notes for the housekeepers who cleaned their hotel rooms!! The Creekview Choral department has a rich tradition of high achievement and added to that tradition and reputation with their performance this past Friday at the Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center. In front of a large crowd of educators, parents, and other students from across the United States, the A Cappella delivered with six beautiful pieces. I would like to thank Tara Sikon, our choral director, and Brian Murray our associate director, for the efforts and commitment that each of you have made while working with our outstanding students! I would also like to thank our talented students for their efforts. Hard work and commitment (and of course talent) can sound so amazingly beautiful!

Our A Cappella Choir is a shining star in our district and a great example of the outstanding opportunities that are provided to the students in C-FB ISD and at Creekview High School!
