Sammamish Red Hawks Choir ProgramSammamish Choir 2022 Accolades:
It is the mission of the Sammamish High School Choir program to instill pride, camaraderie, and empathy in its students. This is accomplished by developing musical independence, exposing students to music from various cultures/time periods, and creating collaboration/performance opportunities for students through concerts, tours, festivals, retreats, and exchanges with other choir programs. It is the hope that all students leave the choir program having become better musicians as well as human beings, creating lifelong bonds and feeling proud of their community and musical accomplishments. The Sammamish Performing Arts Boosters organization supports students participating in the Choir program by funding clinicians and workshops, and providing scholarships to festivals and field trips outside of class. |
