For the past two years, Chatham Education Foundation has provided a grant to underwrite the cost of the district-wide Choral Festival which was held earlier this month. This event fosters a community of choral excellence, the creation and continuation of the relationships between the schools' choral departments, and the opportunity to work with Ms. Moira Smiley, a renowned choral composer on some of her own musical compositions.
Grant recipient, Ms. Amber Griffin, shares, "The Choral Festival exhibited first-hand how this event improved student communication, collaboration, and musicianship. CHS students paved the way for CMS students who then became role models for Lafayette students."
