Congratulations to all OV Choirs for their achievements at the MSVMA Choir Festival. Each group sang beautifully and we couldn't be more proud of their effort and poise. All three choirs earned an Excellent rating, which is the highest rating a choir can receive. This reflects a judicial rating of their performance and sight-reading skills. Congratulations to director Mrs. Samuels, accompanist Ms. Autry, and our hard-working students!
