All District Honor Choir Information

The West Central All-District Honor Choir is coming up on Saturday, March 5th at the UCM campus in Warrensburg! This is a wonderful opportunity for young singers from all over the West-Central District to join together in singing and having fun. Students will rehearse music with Mrs. Williams once a week during the month of February, and then travel to UCM on March 5th to rehearse the same music with an awesome choir director and give an afternoon performance to the community.

If you are interested in this choir, please be aware that it there will be mandatory rehearsals for the month of February (see dates/times below) and there is an $8.00 registration fee. Students will also be required to wear a black skirt or pants and a white top for the performance on Saturday, March 5th.
