You re Gonna Be a Star GirIs.Pop Choir was new to the Music Department this year. Teaching over 10 girls to blend, harmonize, and work together as a singing unit was Ms. Friesenborg's goal for the group. This Choir was designed to perform for the many invitations the music department receives every year. The girls rehearsed gli 'll ZT Someda together two or more days each week on their own time. Each girl had to audition before entering the singing group. They performed at the Old Market Restaurant, Virginia Hills Country Club, Christmas Concert, and the Shawnee Mission Hi-12 Massonic group. Aside from finding their way around school, adjusting to classes, and teachers, Sophomores who tried out for the choir also had to settle into the groove of a new type of singing group. Building their voices and singing with the choir was the main goal set by the class. They sang with the Concert Chorale at Kemper Arena, but only after a thorough try out that consisted of singing their part in tune with a quartet. They also participated in School assemblies, went Christmas caroling, sang in the Christmas Concert, and sang at the Meadows Nursing Home. 1.
