SMSD Students in KMEA All-State Honor Groups

In the coming weeks, dozens of student musicians will represent the Shawnee Mission School District in All-State ensembles. These students took part in rigorous auditions to ultimately be invited to join the Kansas Music Educators Association In-Service Workshop.

These students are considered to be among “the best of the best” in the state. All-State concerts are held at a convention center in Wichita in late February.
