3:15 p.m.


Concert Choir is one of the oldest organizations in the history of Webster Groves High School. It is a seventy-two member auditioned ensemble meeting in three separate class periods. Smaller class sizes allow students to receive more individual instruction and coaching. Concert Choir meets after school twice a month to practice as a complete ensemble. This ensemble is made up of freshman through senior boys and junior through senior girls. Concert Choir first made an appearance at MMEA in 2006 and was the first performing ensemble in the history of the school to perform on a state convention.
