Blalack Choir made an extremely good showing at the All Region Choir Auditions this year. Our region consists of Carrollton, Frisco, Lewisville, Grapevine, Colleyville, Little Elm, and Carroll. There were 647 singers auditioning for a little over 200 spots this year and Blalack placed 35 singers in the choir, the most of ANY middle school at the auditions. This is absolutely unheard of. The next closest school placed 15 singers. Mrs. Crawford, Mrs. Owens and I are so proud of our students for their hard work and dedication. The following students placed in the All Region Choir. -- Brad Kerley, Choir Director
