Monday, October 23rd was the Chantilly Pyramid Choral Concert. Our 6th Grade Chorus sang an energetic folk song with students from Brookfield and Oak Hill to create an ensemble,150 voices strong. They also were a part of the finale at the end that included singers from Franklin MS and Chantilly HS. It was a great evening of choral music!!
Some of the 6th Grade Chorus members joined students from around the pyramid to sing the national anthem at the Chantilly HS football game last Friday night, as a part of Pyramid Night. They sounded great and did a wonderful job representing Lees Corner!
