The Vocal Music class at Arts Impact Middle School offers students a dynamic and inclusive space to develop their vocal skills, explore music theory, and engage in performance opportunities. What makes our program unique is the strong emphasis on musical collaboration, especially with the theatre department. Students not only receive training in choral singing, solo performance, and music theory, but they also have the chance to collaborate directly with the theatre students in musical productions and other performance-based projects. This cross-disciplinary collaboration allows vocal students to experience the fusion of music and drama, bringing songs to life in exciting, live-theatre settings.

At AIMS, students are encouraged to think creatively and work as a team, learning to integrate vocal performance with storytelling. Whether performing in a school musical or working with theatre students on specific scenes or songs, these opportunities help students develop versatility as performers, honing their skills both on stage and behind the scenes. Additionally, the program provides students with the chance to participate in school-wide concerts, talent showcases, and community performances, where they can demonstrate their growing musical abilities.  In addition to their grade level vocal music class, AIMS students have the opportunity to perform with an 8th period select group, made up of 6th-grade musicians.  This is a special opportunity for students who want to take their musical skills to the next level. This advanced choir is for students committed to refining their vocal abilities and performing at a higher level.

Students should choose AIMS because our program fosters a supportive, performance-driven environment where students grow not only as musicians but also as creative collaborators. By working with theatre students, they can experience the power of musical storytelling, building their confidence and broadening their artistic skills. AIMS offers an experience that goes beyond traditional vocal music classes, allowing students to be part of an artistic community that nurtures their passion for both music and theatre.
