Senior Art Shows at The Center

The MISD Fine Arts Department established a new visual arts show opportunity for advanced art students last year. Senior Art Shows for our Advanced Visual Art Students are scheduled at the MISD Center for the Performing Arts.

These shows give senior art students an opportunity to have a larger art show in addition to the District's Annual Art shows held in the spring.

From the Fort Worth Star-Telegram's coverage: 24 area bands march for a chance to make it to the state finals:
"The Lake Ridge High School marching band performed songs like Muse’s Madness while engaging in a pretend battle as part of its performance for the UIL State Marching Band area finals...What drum major Nick Clark, 16, didn’t know halfway through the day was that his Lake Ridge band members had won first place in the preliminary competition. The bands, with color guard members helping amp up performances, were ranked in the finals for music and marching skills."
