Our THS Spring Concert was Thursday, May 24th. Both bands performed as well as The Mixed Choir, Concert Choir, Vocal Ensemble and the barbershop quartet: Sathington Willoughby and the Love Train. It was a grand night of music and awards. Katie Collins and Jesse Wright received the American Choral Directors Award plaque given to students that are a big help to me in the classroom and help keep things running smoothly...right hand "man" helpers. Becca Roberts and Kyle Smith received the National Choral Award plaque given to students that exhibit a high level of musicianship. No doubt each of these students were quite deserving of these awards. Special recognition was also given to our Concert Choir Section Leaders: Katie Collins, Soprano - Carissa Shupp, Alto - Marcus Ellison, Tenor and Jesse Wright, Bass. Each graduating senior in the choral program was recognized, given a certificate and 2 sticks of Werner Gourmet Pepperoni. ..we had some left over from our fundraiser :-). I said goodbye to 19 seniors total. That's a lot of folks. They will be missed not only for their musical contributions but just for being themselves. I wish them all the best in their musical journey ahead. Keep singing!!
