Glenpool Intermediate Scholastic Book Fair
Students were selected by an audition and invited to spend the day in Muskogee rehearsing their music with a guest clinician, ending with a performance in the evening. For most 6th graders, this is their first ever choral audition and their first honor choir event. Intermediate students traveled with the students from Glenpool middle and high school who were also selected for EDHC groups. We are so proud of their accomplishments and the way they represented our school!
