List of Schools Wanting to Share All-State Housing

Please email tony@kmea.org to request inclusion on the List of Schools Wanting to Share All-State Housing. Schools wishing to share housing must arrange for this with other schools prior to making hotel reservations or submitting housing forms. Directors may wish to access the All-State rosters found online in the KMEA Information Center to determine whether other schools may have uneven numbers of male of female students that would fill out incomplete rooms. Due to time constraints, the KMEA office staff cannot assist with the search for other schools to pair with.
