Each school year officers are nominated and elected to provide leadership and assist with the operations of the Klein Forest High School choral program. To be considered for a position, you must first submit an application.

The directors will read through the submissions and choose the students that will be on the ballot. The nominees will be presented to the choirs during class, and a class vote will be taken. Officer elections occur at the end of the school year in May. Any openings will be filled at the beginning of the fall semester.
