SJHS Choirs Tour Elementary Schools

On Friday, December 12th, the eighth and ninth-grade choir students and the choir teacher, Mrs. Leslie Walker, went around to different elementary schools and sang Christmas songs.

The junior high choir students sang at Art City, Sage Creek, Brookside, Westside, and Cherry Creek Elementary Schools, but in the middle of the tour they stopped at the mall and had lunch. Josh Dalley, eighth grader at SJHS, said, “I enjoyed it because it was really fun!”

The students sang lots of different songs. A few are “Oh Come Oh Come,” “Raise up Sheppard,” “Bity Bog,” and “Dig That Crazy Santa Clause.” The Journeymen and Master Singers switched off between who was singing. Some songs the Mastersingers (ninth graders) just sang, and some the Journey Men (eighth grade boys) just sang and others they sang together.

The junior high choirs sang to the elementary schools to entertain the kids and get them in the Christmas spirit. They also sing to the elementary schools to let them know about the choir program at SJHS. Aaron Meyers, eighth grader at SJHS, said, “I would want to do it again. Next year I am going to try out for the Master Singers.”
