Excitement filled the air as the high school show choir pulled into the parking lot with their gold trophy. The middle school show choir was anxiously waiting outside as they started cheering upon their arrival! As the high school students got off of the bus with their shiny hardware, they gave middle school show choir high fives and told them to bring home another one. Mr. Arent also promised the middle school if they brought home the gold, he would shave his head into a Mohawk and paint it blue! The middle school students listened to their elders, and did just that, and Mr. Arent proudly displayed his “new do” all day on Tuesday!
There were only nine gold trophies handed out among the twenty-seven show choirs that day, and Wahoo brought home two of those nine!
It isn’t easy to bring home one of the much-coveted “gold trophies.” Each group has to score enough points to be worthy of such an honor. If your show choir brings home a “gold” it is somewhat of a “status symbol” and indicates that you are one of Nebraska’s finest in your class.
It was a very proud day for our music department, and demonstrates the immense musical talent we have among our students at every level. We are also very fortunate to have the talents of Joseph Nabity on the piano and Patrick Hancock on the drums. Both judges commented on what a great “combo” they were, and how they compliment the singers. Other comments made by the judges were the choirs’ great singing, energy, choreography and staging.
The music department is alive and well at Wahoo Public Schools! CONGRATULATIONS SHOW CHOIRS ON YOUR STELLAR PERFORMANCES!!
