Fourteen years ago, Mrs. Helle created an elementary/middle school Honor Choir. This choir travels to assisted living homes, the Southeast Cancer Center, Missouri Veterans Home, and performs at Busch Stadium throughout the year.  Countless lives have been touched by the voices of the young children in this choir and the power of their music.
