Herington Choral Department has singers who were selected for select choirs recently.
The following singers were selected for the statewide Kansas Choral Directors Honor Choir: Rachel Madrid and Katey Staatz, HHS students; Destinee Florea, Sarah Gonzolas and Colgan Powell, HMS students. The selection process consisted of submitting recordings of each student, and then an approximately 200-voice choir was selected by blind audition. Students eligible were those in grades 5-9 and whose teachers were members of Kansas Music Educators Association. This choir will perform on Feb. 29 at Century II in Wichita as part of the Kansas Music Educators In-Service Workshop.

Two HHS students, Kady Albrecht, junior, and Dale Mulderrig, senior, were chosen to be a part of the North Central District Kansas Music Educators Honor Choir. This choir will perform on December 1 at Manhattan High School. Kady and Dale were both selected through live auditions on Nov. 3. Students selected for the district honor choir are eligible for the state honor choir which will perform on March 1, 2008 in Wichita at KMEA In-Service Workshop.
