Honor Chorus Information
Honor Chorus Information
Honor Chorus is an awesome opportunity for our students to collaborate with musicians from other schools. This two-day rehearsal filled workshop concludes with a culminating performance. Students must be nominated by their music teacher to be considered to be a part of the Honor Chorus. Honor Chorus is an event sponsored by the Georgia Music Educators Association (a division of National Association for Music Education).
We have two different Honor Chorus opportunities available for our students:
GMEA District V (Fulton County, Georgia) Elementary Honor Chorus (4th-6th Grade Students)
GMEA Statewide Elementary Honor Chorus (4th-5th Grades)
Mr. White can nominate 7 students for district and 5 students for state. Other students may be listed as alternates. I know we have many students who want to participate. Everyone may not have the opportunity. This experience is only for a selct group of students.

Once the performers are selected, I will put the parents on one email so parents can organize a carpool if they prefer.
