The Staley Falcon Chorale has been involved in many world premieres by Dan Forrest Ola Gjeilo, Susan La Barr, Eric Barnum with text by Dr. Charles Anthony Silvestri. Staley High School Choirs boast the largest enrollment of any other elective, co-curricular, or extra-curricular in all the high schools in North Kansas City Schools.
