So thankful to work in a community who values the performing arts enough to keep funding our programs! With this year’s grant, we will be able to buy a second spotlight to keep improving our production quality and the technical experience of our students!

Thank you Bent Tree Foundation for ALWAYS supporting our teachers! Congratulations to grant recipients, Lauren Tolar and Judith Barber (not pictured)!!!!!

Our 8th grade treble singers have finished one of their pieces for our upcoming Fall Chorus Concert on October 20th. We absolutely loved being able to show off their progress for our wonderful administrators this afternoon!

Highlight of any principal’s day: hearing the beautiful voices of our 8th grade Chorus students. So much talent here at PJ 💚🖤

Mark your calendars now!

Our Fall chorus concert is on October 20th at 6:30 pm. This year, our concert is in collaboration with our PHS chorus.

We are so excited to partner with PHS and offer our young singers a chance to sing with our more mature musicians.

Come out and support the performing arts. It’s free!

I loved getting to see all of my new and returning students tonight! And a special thanks to some of my previous students who came back to work my information table. It’s going to be a good year!

On Tuesday night, the PJHS Chorus gave an outstanding final concert for the 25-26 school year. The program included crowd pleasers like "The Never Ending Story", "Sign of the Times", and "A Thousand Miles." Our young performers shone brightly as they demonstrated the musicianship and professionalism they learned over the course of this year.

Even Mrs. Tolar performed, with her former classmate, Mr. Clark, the duet “Only Us” as a parting gift to her 8th graders.

To my 7th grade students, I am so proud of your progress this year. You have come so far and I already have exciting plans for next year.

To my 8th graders, I cannot even begin to express how much I will miss you next year. You have become such confident performers, in the choral world and in our theatrical productions. I am so excited to watch you continue to blossom in high school. Stay in touch!

Last night, The Little Mermaid Jr. closed. These kids exceeded my expectations by miles! They embodied their characters and put on five seamless shows. They performed for almost 300 6th graders during JMS’ tour of PJHS and, with over 800 people in our audience over the course of our four other shows, this is our most well-attended production yet.

I’m so proud. This was the first show I’ve ever done AGAIN and I was so lucky to have my original Flounder from 2018 in the audience. I’m so exhausted, but so proud. That’s a wrap on the 25-26 season.

More pics to come…

Now, one more Chorus concert on Tuesday! Come join us at on May 5th at 6:30 pm at Pickens High School for our Spring “Pops” Concert!
