The Sanford community shined brightly for the school department’s annual Spring Sing Choral Showcase at the Performing Arts Center on Wednesday, March 6th.

The showcase, which featured chorus singers from Sanford high, middle, and elementary schools, brought together students grades 4-12 as families and friends filled the seats to witness a special performance.

Sanford Middle School’s 5th Grade Choir started the evening off singing ā€œThe Banana Boat Songā€ by Roger Emerson.

The 6th, 7th, and 8th Grade Choir followed with their rendition of ā€œThe Lion Sleeps Tonight,ā€ with 8th grader Josh Fogarty providing the drums.

Sanford High School’s Honors Chamber Singers then took the stage performing the song ā€œTimeā€ by Jennifer Lucy Cook followed by the chorus singing ā€œWhat Do I Know?ā€ by Ed Sheeran.

Following the high school, Carl J. Lamb, Margaret Chase Smith, and Sanford Pride Elementary’s singers combined to sing ā€œEvery Seasonā€ by Karl Hitzemann.

The finale of the night was a combination of all Sanford school choirs singing ā€œCount on Meā€ by Andy Beck.

Congratulations to all of the performers who made Spring Sping a special night.
