Here at SJHS there has been some beautiful music coming from Mrs. Leslie Walker’s choir room. The junior high choir concert will be on December 3rd at 7:30 p.m. in the SJHS auditorium, and Mrs. Walker and the choir students hope to see you all there.

This Christmas, the the ladies choir, known as the Knightingales, are going to sing many different songs. Two of the songs are Christmas carols from Puerto Rico: "At the Hour of Midnight" and "Los Reyes del Oriente." They will also sing "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas," "Lullay Alleuia," and "Up, Up, Up in the Sleigh."

The advanced choir, known as the Master Singers, will sing "Only a Baby Came," "Stille Nacht" (Silent Night in German), "Masters in this Hall," and "Fruitcake." They will dance and sing "Happy Holiday." Both the Knightingales and Master Singers have been working on these songs since August and are very excited for the performance.

The Knightingales and Master Singers will also be going to the elementary schools in the area. The schools they will visit are Art City, Sage Creek, Brookside, and Cherry Creek. The junior high students are very excited to go and sing to the elementary students. The elementary students have loved to hear our choir in past years, and this year won’t be any different.
