Fundraisers are needed to help offset the exorbitant expenses for costumes, alterations, meals, transportation, competition fees, choreographers, musicians, music licensing fees, videography, and miscellaneous administrative costs.2024-2025McAuliffe choirs had an amazing year! Our advanced girls choir swept both competitions by coming in 1st place at Burbank and Luther and won "Best Music" at Xtravaganza Competition. Our boys choir won "Best Show" at our Luther compeition and "Best Music" at Xtravaganza. Our intermediate girls choir placed 2nd at Xtravaganza as well. We also had a very successful and entertaining Lip Sync Battle, attended a vocal jazz festival and had our yearly performance at Knotts Berry Farm. We had packed audiences of supportive parents at our fall "Red Carpet" concert, and our winter concert and we ended the year with our "Concert on the Green" picnic concert. Lastly, choir students practiced making music videos and made some fabulous music videos to showcase at our last concert.
