Choir
About ALA Choir Program
Taking show choir offers a range of advantages including developing vocal and performance skills, building confidence, fostering teamwork and collaboration, enhancing creativity, improving physical coordination through dance, and creating a strong social community
with shared goals, all while learning valuable life skills like
communication and time management.
Show choir is also available to our elementary and junior high students starting in 5th grade. These students have the opportunity to meet twice a week with our High School Choir Director where they learn choral singing combined with choreographed dance.
