Cardinal Choir is a combined group of talented fourth and fifth grade students who enjoy singing and desire to be a better vocalist. Students rehearse a variety of winter-themed children’s choral music emphasizing proper singing technique and choral blend. Most importantly, these students benefit from the camaraderie that comes from being involved in a performing group. Cardinal Choir is offered once a week during first semester with a performance in December. They are also featured at our NES Winterfest. There is no audition for Cardinal Choir, however, we are looking for students who love to sing, are willing to work hard and show responsible behavior at school, and can commit to the whole semester of rehearsals and performances. Happy singing!
