Kayhi music teacher Trina Elliott is having a busy year. She
just returned from Craig where she accompanied 9 of her choir
students who were selected to participate in the annual SE Honor
Festival. This week Ms. Elliott will accompany 6 students as
they participate in the All State Honor Choir in Anchorage from
Nov 15-17. Seniors Coleman Alguire, Forrest Allred, Samantha
MacNeith and April Souza along with Juniors Victoria Clary and
Elliott Jacksch will join over 200 students from around the State
Of Alaska for this event. These outstanding musicians were selected
from approximately 1000 students who submitted audition tapes.
In February Ms. Elliott will travel to Vancouver, BC with Forrest
Allred, Elliott Jacksch and Samantha MacNeith for the All NW
Music Festival. This event draws participates from AK, WA, OR,
ID, MT and WY with over 2 thousand students applying for an available
spot in either the mixed or women s choir. The fact that for
two years running Ms. Elliott has had students selected to participate
speaks volumes for the wonderful music program available at Kayhi
and the exceptional teacher we have.
Congratulations to all those selected and have a wonderful time
in Anchorage. And a huge THANK YOU to everyone who helped support
the choir by purchasing pizza s prepared by our exceptional chief,
Mr. Doug Edwards. His support of the all the school activates
through fund raising makes it all possible.
