2026 CCISD All-State Musicians Named by TMEA

A total of 29 band, choir and orchestra students from Clear Creek ISD’s five comprehensive high schools were selected as 2026 All-State members by the Texas Music Educators Association (TMEA). This is the highest honor a Texas music student can achieve.

TMEA sponsors the prestigious Texas All-State audition process to recognize students’ dedication to musical excellence and to encourage educators to support their growth. Each fall, more than 70,000 high school musicians across the state audition in their TMEA Region. From this competitive process, only 1,833 total students earned the distinction of All-State musicians and qualified to perform in one of 18 elite All-State bands, orchestras and choirs this year.

These students had the opportunity to perform at the annual TMEA Clinic/Convention in San Antonio in February. Allie Chu from Clear Brook High School was also selected as a soloist for the TMEA All-State Mixed Choir during the event.
