Spanish Fork High Schools Singers Perform at the local Schools

Spanish Fork High School’s choir, Singers, went to two of the elementary schools in the Spanish Fork area and performed some of their musical selections for them. They went to Brockbank Elementary on February 26, 2010 and to Riverview Elementary on February 19, 2010. They also performed at Spanish Fork Jr. High on February 16th, 2010. When asked why they did this, Shea Bradshaw the teacher said, “We wanted to give our elementary schools a great free assembly. It was also a great opportunity to get more practice time.” The choirs performed some of their Show Choir numbers as well as some Chamber numbers, so the students could know what both sides of choir at the Spanish Fork High School was like. When asked her opinion about it, Christina Heywood (a student in Singers) said, “It was so much fun! We were able to spread the word about how much fun choir is.” She continued, “It was such a great feeling you got when you had an audience and you had people actually responding to you when you were done performing.” During the assemblies Bradshaw had a few students share their thoughts about why they are involved in other activities outside of choir. He also had them tell the students how being in these other activities helped them to be better in choir. The Singers want to promote that singing and being in choir is fun, but you can do other things along with choir. They want to let the students know that they can do many things when they grow up and just to keep their options open.
