🎵 BIG BAND NEWS!🎵
Congratulations to Branson High School's outstanding musicians that earned a spot in the 2026 Missouri All-State Band:

🎷Claudia Beattie - Alto Saxophone, 1st Alternate
➡ 6th best alto sax player in the state!

🎸Brodie Pufall - Jazz Band, Honorable Mention
➡ 3rd best bass player in the state!

"These students have worked tirelessly to prepare for this audition, and we could not be more proud. Being named on the All-State roster is a tremendous achievement, and they have absolutely earned it," shared Daniel Jarrett, Director of Bands.

This accomplishment represents the highest level of musical achievement in the state. All-State musicians are invited to attend the Missouri Music Educators Conference in January at Lake of the Ozarks where they will attend clinics and classes, rehearse and perform a concert.

A big round of applause for these talented musicians! 👏👏👏

We’ve been waiting months to share this, and the finished product is finally here! The 2024-25 Jazz Ensemble was tasked to arrange, produce, and perform music to go with a song by local Branson musician Jacob Hughes. Along with multiple days of filming, the commercial promoting student musician group travel to Branson, MO is complete!

We are incredibly grateful for the opportunity to showcase our students, and are beyond proud of how they stepped up to showcase themselves in both the recording booth and the filming sessions. Thank you Explore Branson, Branson Public Schools, Mr. Reed Warner, Jacob Hughes, Jason Spencer (videography), and countless others who gave us this chance and made this project successful. We love Branson, MO and are beyond Proud To Be Pirates! ❤️🏴‍☠️
