What a great year we have had this year with chorus. Thanks to all the students and parents for their support of the choral program.
We have posted pictures from the spring show HERE. Make sure to check them out.
We also snagged some pictures of alumni and students as well as some friends with Dr. Odom. Check these out HERE and don’t miss the retirement tribute video from the spring show.
“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."
