Chamber choir is an advanced, auditioned ensemble for 7th and 8th grades that meets every Monday and Wednesday after school from 3:00-4:00pm. These students are the ambassadors of the chorus department that perform at school and community events. To be a part of this group, you must be able to learn difficult music at a fast pace and have a passion for music and performing. This choir is a big commitment but a lot of fun! If you are interested, please see the audition information, attendance policy, and calendars below.
Each year, every chorus teacher may nominate a certain amount of students to participate in District Honor Chorus. Nominated students must exhibit excellent behavior and musicianship in class, and be able to learn music on their own with practice files.
