In addition to classroom music, students have the opportunity to join the after-school choir, where they grow as vocal musicians, learn to collaborate in community, and share their faith through song. Whether performing in small groups, large ensembles, or exploring music from cultures around the world, students experience music as both a gift and a means of worship, strongly reflecting one of Aug Prep’s mission of faith.
