Northview’s Halteman Named To County All-Star Band

December 11, 2008

halteman20.jpgA Northview High School band standout has been named to the county’s honor band.

Briana Halteman was named as a flute player for the Escambia County School District’s All-County High School Honor Band for 2008-2009. She was the only Northview Tribal Breat member named to the band.

“I am excited that I made All-County Band since it is my senior year, and am really looking forward to this experience,” Halteman said.

Halteman current serves as the Northview Tribal Beat’s Drum Major (pictured left, click to enlarge).

Students were selected based upon auditions conducted by all District high school band directors earlier this week at Escambia High School.

The Escambia All-County Band will perform January 27 at 7 p.m. at the Pensacola High School Auditorium.

    I didn’t know that Northview has never had anyone make all-county. Wow.

    I guess that makes it an even higher honor, to be the first and only. Congratulations!
