Today Tumwater High School held its first Community and Electives Fair. The purpose was to expose students to elective opportunities and areas of community service. I helped staff the Chorus booth in my continuing effort to support Music Education. I got to talk with the students in choir already about their experiences. They all agreed their teacher Mrs. Osgood is an amazing teacher and she has made their experience even greater.
One senior I talked to told me that her music classes are what kept her coming to school. It has made her high school experience so much more meaningful and fun. She also shared that the choral classes are such a melting pot of students that it was a way for her to meet all different types of students that she might not ever get to know outside of chorus.
The students staffing the table were able to get lots of other students to sign up for the choir classes. Another senior helped other boys make the decision to join by explaining the guy/girl ratio 2 girls to one guy! That was an obvious selling point!
