WASHINGTON TOWNSHIP - The annual All-South Jersey Elementary Choir Festival brought together 150+ talented singers in grades 4-6 from across the South Jersey region for a showcase of musical excellence on March 1, 2025, at Washington Township High School. This year, the Washington Township Schools had 15 students from its three Middle Schools participating and performing under the guidance of their dedicated choir directors: Nancy Dickinson (Bunker Hill Middle School), Christina Davidson (Chestnut Ridge) and Alyssa Campanini (Orchard Valley). The festival featured a variety of songs that highlighted the students’ hard work and passion for music.


“We are so proud of the incredible talent and dedication our students displayed at this year's elementary choral festival,” said Casey Corigliano, the district’s Supervisor of Visual and Performing Arts. "Events like this provide students with the opportunity to grow both as individuals and as part of a larger musical community.”


The All-South Jersey Elementary Choir Festival continues to be a highlight of the school year for our middle school students, inspiring their young voices and fostering a lifelong love of music.
