Mena High School

Mena High School Students had a great weekend at the All-State Band Auditions held in Russellville, AR.  Thousands of students compete every year for very limited spots in the Arkansas All State Bands.  Congratulations to Eric Decker for making 1st Chair Bassoon in the All State Symphonic Band and Hudson Vacca for making 1st chair piano in the 1st All State Jazz Band.  This is the second year in a row that Hudson has been recognized as the best high school jazz piano player in the state of Arkansas.  This is a great  accomplishment for both students and we are proud of them.  They will attend the Arkansas All State Music Conference at the Hot Springs Convention Center on February 15-17.
