February 2, 2021 at 6:00 PM - Regular Meeting

Description:  12 days of Covid is a song based off the famous Christmas Carol, The 12 days of Christmas. The words have been written by Alyssa Jenks, a 1st year choir teacher at Mueller Park Jr. High, with the help of her 7th grade choir students. Although we all know that the Corona Virus is nothing to laugh about, Alyssa wanted to help students find a creative way to connect music to the events going on this school year. She believes that music can be such a help to students and knows that projects like this can help them deal with the stressors of everyday life, especially during such a unique time. Alyssa and her choirs are overjoyed to be able to share this piece with you tonight.
