My Classroom

Mrs. Santine teaches the 6th Grade Choir, the 7th and 8th Grade Choir, and the Regis High School Choir.

The Regis High School Choir is an ensemble made up of students in grades 9-12.  The choir performs in at least four concerts each year, singing a great variety of styles from folk songs and spirituals to pop music and Broadway tunes.  The choir has received numerous honors and awards, such as earning a “1” Superior rating at the annual Wisconsin School Music Association Large Group Choral Festival for the past fifteen years.  Students in this choir routinely advance to State competition for the Solo and Ensemble Festival each year, and students from Regis have represented their school in the State Honors Music Project several times over the past 20+ years.  In the past nineteen years, they have traveled to Minneapolis, New York City, Chicago, Nashville, and St. Louis. The RHS Choir meets everyday for 43 minutes.

The 7th and 8th Grade Choir meets five days a week, and studies a variety of musical styles throughout the year.  They also have a composer group project during the 2nd quarter, in which they collaborate with another student to study and compose a research paper and a presentation to the class on their composer.  They usually perform in 3-4 concerts throughout the school year.

The 6th Grade Choir meets three days a week, and studies a variety of musical styles throughout the year.  They will also write a biography on the singer or performing group of their choice, and present their research to their class.  This project takes place during the 2nd quarter.  They usually perform in 3-4 concerts throughout the school year.
