Prince William County Public Schools

The Virginia Music Educators Association (VMEA) selected 49 Prince William County Public Schools (PWCS) high school students for the 2021 All-Virginia Chorus, Band, and Orchestra.

"Selection for an All-Virginia ensemble represents the highest honor that the Virginia Music Educators Association can give to a student and is an extraordinarily rare achievement," said Dr. Ed Stephenson, supervisor of the arts in PWCS. "It is a testament to the dedication of our music educators, hard work, and discipline of our students, and the steadfast support of our parents."

With this honor, students participate in All-Virginia Chorus and All-Virginia Band and Orchestra events, complete with rehearsals and guest speakers and instructors, between April 22-24, 2021. At the end of May, the All-Virginia Ensembles will come together for a YouTube Live Premiere concert. The exact date is to be announced.
