All-State Middle School Musicians in Paradise

All-State Middle School Musicians in Paradise

We are thrilled to announce that fourteen exceptionally talented 7th and 8th-grade orchestra students from throughout PVSchools were selected to participate in the prestigious 2026 Arizona All-State Junior High Festival Orchestra. This incredible honor was bestowed after a demanding audition process, in which the students demonstrated their remarkable skills and passion for music, earning their place among the finest middle school musicians in the state.

Being selected for this esteemed ensemble was no small feat, as only 100 students across Arizona were chosen to join this competitive program. The experience was both musically rewarding and challenging, and required a deep commitment from each participant.

Please join PVSchools in congratulating these outstanding students and their dedicated teachers on this significant achievement.
