We have some exciting news to share! Our Krimmel Full Orchestra earned all Division I (Excellent) ratings at Full Orchestra UIL this week!
A full orchestra combines students from orchestra and band to perform major orchestral repertoire together. It’s a complex process that requires coordinating multiple classes, balancing instrumentation, and building new ensemble skills. Simply putting a full orchestra together at the middle school level is a big accomplishment. Krimmel is one of only three schools in the Tomball/Conroe/Klein region to have a full orchestra perform at UIL. Mr. Cook, Ms. Webb, and Mr. McKee each conducted a concert piece while Ms. Arnold expertly guided and conducted the orchestra for their sight-reading evaluation (8 minutes to learn and perform a new piece of music for a rating!)
Even more impressive…Krimmel is the only school in the region that took choirs, orchestras, bands, and a full orchestra to UIL this year where every single group from that school earned a Division I rating!
Our Fine Arts programs continue to perform at a top-tier level, ranking us among the best in the state. We couldn’t be more proud of our students and the work they’ve put in to achieve this level of excellence!
