Music Department

The Gifted/Talented Class at JHHS is a performing class.  They participate in District Honor Choir, Southern Choral Classic, District and State Music Rally, Federation and NATS.  These competitions enable the students to receive music scholarships to different universities.  The students also perform for Homecoming, football games and graduation.  In addition to school performances, they also perform at the nursing homes, various church functions, and many other places.

 

If a student has talent in music and wants to develop it further, then he or she should try out for the music class.
