🎶 Big News from Jordan High! 🎶 The Jordan High Jazz Combo has been selected to perform at the 2025 NC Music Educators Association (NCMEA) Conference — the highest honor a student ensemble can receive in North Carolina! 🎷👏 📍 Held at the Benton Convention Center in Winston-Salem, NCMEA is the largest gathering of music educators in the state. Only two other groups statewide were chosen — and they're one of them! This marks just the second time in school history that a Jordan ensemble has earned this honor. The last? 1976. Proud is an understatement. Let’s hear it for our incredible student musicians! 💙🎵 #JordanJazz #NCMEA2025 #DPSArts #WeAreDPS
