HIGH SCHOOL BAND
The Argyle Eagle Marching Band has been hard at work gearing up for its State Championship run by preparing and perfecting their competition show, “All Things Bright and Beautiful.” At the time we wrote this article, they have been crowned Grand Champion at the Ponder Marching Contest and the Sounds of Springtown Marching Showcase – sweeping all captions at the contests. This includes Outstanding Visual, Music, Percussion, Color Guard, and Drum Majors.
On Nov. 18, the Argyle High School Band competed at its UIL competitions beginning with the UIL Region 2 Marching Contest. Upon qualification, the band will compete at the UIL Area Marching Contest on Dec. 8 to qualify for the State Marching Contest on Dec. 14 in San Antonio. Good Luck Argyle Eagle Marching Band. In addition to competing for a State Championship, 64 students in the high school band are competing for a spot in the All-Region Band. Virtual auditions were held on and announced in November following the print date for this publication. The results were released through Argyle ISD communications. MIDDLE SCHOOL BAND
Congratulations to the Argyle Middle School Band on its incredible virtual fall concert!! Students in grades 6-8 prepared and recorded music to showcase their talents to their friends and family.
Seventh- and eighth-grade students from both Honor Winds and Symphonic Band competed for spots in the 2020 Region 2 TMEA All-Region Band. With hundreds of students from Denton ISD, Lewisville ISD, and Northwest ISD, 33 of the Argyle students were named to the All-Region Band. Argyle had the second most students from any school that competed. Congratulations to all of you!
