In Music, students experience music through listening, discussing, writing, and performing.
An important part of Music will be preparation for weekly Mass through study of the music that supports the liturgy.*(DUE TO COVID-19, THE CHOIR HAS BEEN SUSPENDED)

All students will study basic music history as appropriate to their grade levels and participate in class/group and individual projects designed to deepen their understanding of and love for music.
