The Three Pillars of Musical Excellence
Connecting the bridges from elementary and into high school, building a caring community of students who share a passion for music and learning
Maintaining standards of excellence in creating, responding, and connecting to music, to tell a story through performance
Support and enrichment for every student, including tutorials, off-campus trips, Chamber Choir, and honor choirs
Chorus students wear performance uniforms for each concert and LGPE - ladies wear a uniform dress, and men wear a uniform pants/button-down combo. These uniforms are ordered through Formal Fashions, Inc., and are the same that RHHS Chorus wears (RHMS men wear some items, but not the full tuxedo set that RHHS wears).
All uniforms are machine washable!
