Deck the Halls with Chorus Greenery!
The Starr’s Mill High School Choral Department will once again be selling beautiful, live holiday greenery this year. Proceeds from the fundraiser will go to defray a portion of the cost for the chorus to travel to attend special choral events.
Stay tuned for more information!
“Plato once said that music ‘is a more potent instrument than any other for education.’ Now scientists know why. Music, they believe, trains the brain for higher forms of thinking. Researchers at the University of California studied the power of music by observing two groups of preschoolers. One group took piano
lessons and sang daily in chorus. The other did not. After eight months, the musical 3-year-olds were expert puzzlemasters, scoring 80% higher than their playmates did in spatial intelligence - the ability to visualize the world accurately."
