Congratulations to Jahmeel Bailey, a choir student at Chaparral High School, for gracing the cover of Southwestern Musician, the Texas Music Educators Association’s monthly magazine!

This incredible photo was captured during dress rehearsal on February 13 at the Henry B. González Convention Center, as the CHS Varsity Tenor/Bass Choir prepared for its performance at the TMEA State Convention as a TMEA Invited Honor Choir.

Among the many outstanding performances at the convention, it was an incredible honor for Jahmeel and the Chaparral High School Choir to be selected to represent the talented singers of Texas on this prestigious stage.

We are incredibly proud of Jahmeel and the entire CHS Choir for this well-deserved recognition and for representing with such excellence!

Congratulations to our Middle School Theatre students on an epic lip sync battle. This year's theme, Tale of the Unsung Hero, provided a variety of performances celebrating those who are not always in the spotlight. Varsity theatre students kept us laughing with their best dad jokes throughout the night. It was an enjoyable evening of theatre!

Our Varsity Theater students learned about careers in film from Austin Acting Studio's Jessica Culaciati. Ms. Culaciati discussed acting for the camera as well as exploring careers in film.
