The Advanced Orchestra at Richardson West Junior High School will represent RISD at the annual Texas Music Educators Association in San Antonio as the 2025 TMEA invited program spotlight orchestra.
The West students were selected by a panel of judges and will get to highlight exemplary and innovative teaching within the Texas orchestra community through the annual TMEA convention.
Congratulations to all the students, teachers, band leaders and families! #RISDBeTheOne
The 2026-27 school year is right around the corner, and this year’s Backpack Bash is coming to a campus near you in August 2026.
Through meaningful partnerships with businesses and organizations, we can expand opportunities, experiences, and support for our students, staff, and families.
These assignments place experienced, student-centered leaders across the district’s Learning Communities to strengthen collaboration, support campuses, and advance the district’s North Star goal.
