Iowa All-State is an annual event hosted by the Iowa High School Music Association where teenage musicians audition for a place among the best high school band, orchestra or choir. 

In 2021, 44 of Kennedy’s students will audition at Independence High School on Oct. 20 and 23 for a spot. Of the 44 auditioners, four are orchestra students, 15 band students and 25 choir students.

Those who succeed will go on to perform in the All-State Music Festival Nov. 18-20.
