Lyons Upper Elementary School 5th Grader Kinsley Jeter recently participated in the Georgia Music Educators Association’s Statewide Elementary Honor Chorus, where she was selected to sing a solo.

Approximately 300 of the best elementary singers in Georgia gathered at the Classic Center in Athens to rehearse and perform challenging and beautiful choral arrangements. At the finale of the concert, the students performed a choral arrangement of Bill Withers’ song, Lovely Day. The finale included a solo part that Jeter auditioned for and received. The entire choir accompanied Jeter as she performed beautifully for a packed Classic Center theater audience of about 2100 people.

To simply be chosen to attend the Statewide Elementary Honor Chorus is a tremendous honor, but to receive the one solo for the evening truly distinguishes her in a class by herself. Jeter represented Toombs County and Toombs County Schools well as she sang beautifully on the stage.
