We are thrilled to announce that 7th Grader, Taryn Smith has been selected to participate in the 2027 American Choral Directors Association (ACDA) National Honor Choir in Minneapolis, Minnesota!

This extraordinary distinction places Taryn among an elite group of young vocalists from across the United States, selected through a highly competitive national audition process.

Being chosen for a National ACDA Honor Choir is one of the highest honors a young choral musician can achieve, recognizing exceptional vocal ability, musicianship, and dedication to musical excellence.

We are incredibly proud to have Taryn represent West-Oak Middle School on the NATIONAL stage!

From West-Oak to the National Stage
