Q Choral music includes all academic disciplines: math in sight reading, history in styles, English in poetry, science in sound, and physical education in a strong athletic body. This is the way Doc Walt Michels describes the importance of music in high school students' education. Sprayberryis choral department provides many levels of music education from Intermediate Mixed to Advanced Mixed to Ensemble. These groups per- form at many concerts throughout the year after putting in long hours of practice in class. Doc Michels sees that his choruses maintain high standards such as sight reading and four part sight singing. These standards make SHS the place to be for chorus.
