Scores of Awards

In every situation there is always some GOOD to point out. Although Santa Ana's music budget and system is in the ditches, they are still a number of talented students who are being recognized from all over Orange County and California for their abilities. It is sad to know that students will probably not have the same opportunities in the future... For now, here is a comprehensive list of music awards earned by some of the talented music students of Santa Ana.

Rotary Young Singer of the Year (Students from Valley and Saddleback have placed as winners for the last five years, outperforming OCHSA and winning the entire competition in 2008!)

Disneyland Candlelight Ceremony (Santa Ana Chamber Singers have been accepted into this competitive ensemble for six years now).

Macy Awards (Student 'Tony' awards, Santa Ana has one awards in 2003, 2004, 2007)

Santa Ana music students have also participated in the following respected ensembles: California All-Star Honor Choir, Southern California Vocal Association Honor Choir, Southern California School Band and Orchestra Association Concerts, American Choral Directors Association Honor Choir.

Let's keep it going!
