High School Choir
John Gorecki, director
In choir at SVHS, we provide students with the opportunity to improve how they sing, expose them to different cultures, provide a creative outlet, and encourage them to actively listen.
All high school students are welcome to sign up for this class during course selection and will receive a grade (based on participation and performances). Choir is both a performance ensemble and a class where we learn vocal fundamentals and music literacy.
