During a recent government meeting, a passionate plea was made by a choir director advocating for the reinstatement of collapsed classes within the district. The director, who has dedicated 17 years to building a successful choir program, expressed deep concern over the impact of recent cuts on both students and the community.

Highlighting the achievements of the program, the director noted that their choirs have received numerous accolades, underscoring the quality of education and performance provided. The director recounted a troubling conversation with Principal Hasty, where they were faced with the difficult decision of eliminating one of their choirs to avoid additional compensation for extra preparation time. Ultimately, the show choir was cut, a decision that the director lamented due to the extensive effort and pride invested in its performances, including significant events like graduation and the Winners Showcase.

The director's appeal reflects a broader concern within the district regarding resource allocation and the prioritization of arts education. As discussions continue, the community awaits a response from district officials on the future of the choir program and the potential restoration of the classes that have been eliminated.
