Mt Laurel Elementary School held its first ever school-wide Holiday Choir Program at the Samford University Wright Center on Dec. 2. There were over 600 performers and over 2,500 in attendance. The program, titled “Holiday Music from the Movies,” featured songs from favorite Christmas movies including “The Grinch,” “Home Alone” and ”White Christmas.”

The Knightingale’s show choir, which consists of 110 fourth and fifth graders, performed a show from “The Polar Express” and all wore red monogrammed pajamas. The show was complete with singing, tap dancing, gymnastics, falling snow and candlelight.

“It was definitely a night for the students and families to remember!” said music teacher and choir director Haley Spates.
