On this page you will find the additional singing opportunities that are open to students in the choir program. All of these events are optional unless otherwise stated in the syllabus. Ms. Bilyeu encourages all singers to audition for an ASO as these choirs give students once-in-a-lifetime opportunities to perform with students around the region, state, and country.
*ALL STUDENTS planning to participate in ASOs MUST attend
the family meeting on 8/25 at 3 p.m. with an adult family member.
The deadline to register for ALL Fall ASOs is Friday, August 30th, 2024. Students will not be able to sign up for an ASO if they have not completed the registration form and turned in payment by this date.
