2007 – 2008 Choir News:
Choir News: The Westminster Academy High School Choir went to the West Tennessee Choral Music Festival in Jackson, TN on April 3rd. They performed 3 classical choral pieces for 3 judges and then went to be adjudicated for their sight-singing ability. They earned a Superior rating in both events. There were approximately 60 choirs who entered this festival, including a few private schools and Memphis City and Shelby County Schools. This rating qualifies them to enter the TN American Choral Director's Festival next year.
