The ODCS choirs seek to provide many activities that will be both educational and fun for the students. It is important that all Choir and HS Select Ensemble members strive to be actively involved in all choral activities to both support and bring continued success to the music department.
The music department also encourages all parents of students participating in choral and instrumental activities to become actively involved in the Music Boosters Club. MBC meetings are held the first Monday of each month in the ODCS band room (501). To find out more about the program or to volunteer your time, click here to email Sandra Torres (MBC President).
