Trying out and making all district choir is a great accomplishment to some students. Senior Kalie Thompson said, “I’m super excited that I made All-District choir again for the second year in a row! Coming in as a freshman I would have never imagined I would gain such a love for choir, or that I would learn so much in order to even go try out for all district choir more or less qualify for All-State for two years now. I’m so excited for all the amazing memories we are going to make at all districts this year!”

Students who qualified to audition for All-State are continuing to practice under the direction of Choir Director Mrs. Lewis.

The students will have a performance Saturday, November 19.
