SMS 7th and 8th Grade Chorus had the opportunity to participate in the SCMEA SSA/TB clinic—performing alongside other middle school students in the region in group song. The ensemble also had a chance to perform alone in front of their clinicians for feedback. Socastee received top ratings! We are so proud of our singers and the work Mr Dobell does with the State in order to offer these clinic opportunities in our region! Keep your voices strong, Warriors!
