Fourteen Lobos Selected to Texas State Band!
Langham Creek High School's Lobo Band just broke another Cypress-Fairbanks ISD record! We are extremely proud of the band students who were selected to the 2001 Texas All State Band. This honor, according to Mr. McAdow, was "our best showing ever."
To give you an idea of the magnitude of this honor, the Lobo Band competes in what many consider to be the toughest Area in Texas. Within our Area, we have some of the finest bands in America. In other words, selection to the All State Band from this Area means that our band students compete against the best of the best in Texas.
