Congratulations to Rebekah Alberda on being selected to participate in the Oklahoma Choral Directors Association JH All-State Treble Choir.

Due to Covid, the choir will be a little different this year. The Choir will be virtual with rehearsals taking place over zoom. This choral experience will take place January 7-9th 2021. Great Job Rebekah!!!!
