For the first time in school history, the Christian County High School Symphonic Band has been selected to perform at the prestigious 2026 Kentucky Music Educators Association (KMEA) Professional Development Conference in Louisville.
This rare and remarkable honor places the Colonel Band among the top high school music programs in the Commonwealth, as only a small number of ensembles across the state are invited to perform at this statewide event. The selection is a reflection of the band’s consistent excellence, tireless dedication, and the unwavering passion of its students and staff.
The performance is scheduled for Friday, February 6, 2026, at 2:15 PM in Ballroom C of the Kentucky International Convention Center. The Colonels will take the stage in front of music educators and professionals from across Kentucky, marking a defining moment in the program’s legacy.
What makes this achievement even more poignant is the timing—this performance will take place during the final year of the Christian County High School Colonel Band Program. As the district prepares for the consolidation of its high schools, this appearance will serve as a powerful and emotional tribute to decades of musical excellence, leadership, and school spirit.
The band community is grateful for this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to represent Christian County on such a grand stage, and the entire school district celebrates this unforgettable milestone.
