Hixson A Cappella
Love to sing in harmony? Come join Hixson A Cappella. Because we only see each other once a week, students are expected to learn parts on their own. Auditions will happen at the beginning of the year, and new members may join with new auditions in December for the second semester. A cappella performs with the other after school groups during the Sounds of Hixson and Fine Arts Festival.
