Frequently Asked Questions

all-region / all-state band

  • Just like in middle school band, students in the Creek View Cougar Band compete in the TMEA All-State (Region Band) process! Although Creek View is a 4A high school, our band students compete on the 5A track in this process.

  • Students are assigned 3 etudes at the beginning of the year.

  • Auditions are held during the months of November, December, and January.

  • Perhaps the most exciting difference between the high school & middle school region experience is that, in high school, it doesn’t stop at Region Band / Orchestra! In high school, it’s possible to advance to Area and even State!

  • Students who earn membership in the TMEA All-State Band get to travel to San Antonio for four days and make music with the finest musicians in the State of Texas.

  • All students participate in weekly Master Classes (sectionals) throughout the Fall semester to prepare for the auditions.
