Does your child like to sing? They are welcome to join the choir at West Sylvan Middle School! Choir at WSMS is a wonderful way to be involved in the arts despite schedule limitations during the regular school day. Students will develop a healthy vocal technique, build musicianship skills such as reading music and ear training, sing music from a variety of styles and cultures, and be part of a community of awesome kids who love music.
