JPS Choir

Concert Choir meets every Thursday from 2:35-4:00 p.m. and is open to all students at JPS. No experience or audition is necessary. All students involved in the JPS Choir program are also members of Concert Choir. Concert Choir performs at least twice a year and sings music of a wide range of genres and styles, from classical to contemporary. Students also learn how to develop confidence as individual singers while learning the basics of music notation as well as listening skills. For any questions, or if you're interested in joining, please email Mr. Lee--We can't wait to meet you!
