CCS Middle School Honors Choir

Congratulations to CCS middle school students who were selected to participate in the Middle School Honors Choir.

Students rehearsed their music prior to a weekend clinic and concert held at Hardaway High School in Columbus. The guest clinician for the weekend workshop was Dr. Elizabeth Parker of the Schwob School of Music, Columbus State University. The middle school "all-select" chorus had well over 400 middle school choir members from Muscogee County and surrounding areas. This was a great honor for our students to be selected to particpate in this event.
