Two Fort Dodge Middle School Students Selected to Opus Honor Choir

Two Fort Dodge Middle School students were recently selected to participate in the annual Opus Honor Choir Festival. Vocal directors nominated over 2,100 students for 720 positions in the four Opus Honor Choirs. Selections were made by means of a recorded audition.  The FDMS students selected to participate are:

• Harper Sandahl – 7^th Grade
• Jonathan Casciato – 6^th Grade

“Selection into the Opus Honor Choir is an incredible honor,” said Joan Ascherl, FDMS vocal instructor.  “It is the high school equivalent of All-State.  Harper and Jonathan will enjoy a wonderful experience to showcase and grow their skills and talent.”

The Opus Honor Choirs will perform at 4 p.m. on November 17, in C.Y. Stephens Auditorium in Ames. The Opus Honor Choir Festival is made possible by the Iowa Choral Directors Association, Inc.
