Field Trips
All-State Festival Auditions (open to Concert and Chamber Choir students)
Students in grades 10-12 may audition to participate in one of three high school choirs comprised of the top choral students from around the state. Students selected to sing in one of these choirs are members of a highly prestigious group. However, ability is only part of the selection process; this honor is achieved primarily through hard work and time spent learning the selected music. Students who are interested in participating in this event must return the
completed, signed permission form and the non-refundable field trip fee by the deadline.
Madison County Honor Choir (open to singers in any choir)
Selected participants will join forces with other students from Madison County schools in one of two choirs for a day and half of hard work and fun with regionally renowned clinicians, culminating in an evening performance. See the pictures from last year in the Photo Gallery.
