South African Men's Choral Group Visit With Us

On Monday, May 21, we were fortunate enough to have Thula Sizwe, an acappella vocal performance group from South Africa, perform for our students and work with members of our Lancer Choir.  Brought here in part by Mr. Saville-Andre, a few Loyalsock families hosted these men in their own homes as they travel around the country.  It was an incredibly exciting experience for our students, as the group also had a chance to perform for all of our HS students at both lunches that day in our Lancer Court.  What a rewarding experience for all of our kids!
