Who We Are
The James E. Taylor HS Choir program is built on a commitment to musical excellence, taking pride in all that we do, and developing students into lifelong leaders.
For more than 40 years, the Choir Department has been a strong contributor to the local community. We welcome each student and parent as a part of our choir family. JET Choir is a place where students can have a “home” on campus where they are known and taken care of both musically and academically.
We welcome each of you, both students and parents, to this program. With our combined support and commitment, every year will be one of successful music making! Please do not hesitate to contact us with any questions, concerns, or suggestions that you may wish to share during the school year.
