We are extremely pleased to announce that the Estill County Middle School Choir scored a Distinguished rating at the District 11 Kentucky Music Educators Association Assessment Festival today! This is such an accomplishment for this group, especially considering the amount of rehearsal time we lost this school year, the cancellation of our preview concert last week, and 6 students being absent today. If you know any of these students in your classes, please congratulate them, because they really had to work hard to make this happen.

03/16/2026

Tonight’s concert has been cancelled. It will not be rescheduled. We will perform the songs on the May 5th concert.

This assessment allows students to demonstrate what they have learned in choir during the year. Each group performs 2 prepared songs then sight-reads an unknown selection in front of judges and are scored novice, apprentice, proficient, or distinguished.
ATTIRE:Students will need to wear their Choir Shirt with black pants and dark shoes.

High school graduation- THIS Friday, May 23: Our middle/high choir has been asked to perform at graduation. Please make every effort to be there. Choir students should be in the high school gym by 6:30pm. Graduation starts at 7:00pm. If you aren’t attending graduation, you can drop your child off and be back to pick them up at 8:00pm. (This is the estimated time I believe we will be finished performing.)

This has been a wonderful year & I hope you have a great summer!
