We earned state sweepstakes and state Best In Class titles in 2014 and 2015. The 2019 Spotlight Singers are very focused and determined to give their best performance this Friday. Please encourage them and give them your support!!! Knowing your teachers and peers care about what you do makes such a huge difference.
