Music students selected for All-State Choir

Two young girls wearing red shirts with "Future Mighty Macs Choir" printed on them are sitting in a small red vehicle in what appears to be a school hallway.

We are MIGHTY proud to congratulate Emily Dooey '26 and Ava Soukup '27 for their participation in the ILMEA All State Choir! MacNation held a cart ride to celebrate their accomplishment.

Emily and Ava auditioned for the All State Choir in October with five pieces of choral music, along with thousands of other students from all across Illinois. They were selected to participate in the All-State Music Festival in Peoria, where they will work with a collegiate conductor to prepare for the final concert!
