Each year, elementary music teachers send five students to represent their schools and our county in the Elementary Honor Chorus.  The event includes a weekend of rehearsals and workshops with a guest clinician who helps prepare them for a culminating concert.  The HCS Elementary Honor Chorus is open to all 4th and 5th grade students and narrowed down to only five students from each school.
