The Girls Choral Academy is proud to have partnered since 1999 with GRPS to provide this vibrant and growing neighborhood after school music program that is tuition-free, due to the generosity of local business, foundations and private donors!  

 

The Grandville Neighborhood Girls Choirs program ("GNGC") is located in two regions and designed for  3rd through 5th grade girls.  All four schools are in the Grand Rapids Public Schools district.   ​​

​

The "SOUTHWEST" GNGC singers attend classes at

(1) Southwest Academy-Bilingual,

(2) Cesar E. Chavez Elementary, and

(3) Buchanan Elementary.  

 

The "SOUTHEAST" GNGC singers is for girls who attend Campus Elementary. 

 

​The Grandville Neighborhood Girls Choirs serve girls in urban Grand Rapids with emphasis placed on inspiring vocal music in a positive atmosphere. The repertoire is varied and includes Hispanic folk songs, jazz, classical and gospel tunes. 

 

In addition to weekly rehearsals,  students perform in three (3) major concerts a year, as well as small performance opportunities in their communities.   Girls enjoy going on special field trips which in the past have included outings to local orchard, museums and musical performances around the City of Grand Rapids, touring local colleges, and an end of season performances out of town in cities like Chicago.   

 

GCA relies heavily on volunteers to make special opportunities possible; choir fundraising events, and parents and guardians are encouraged to get involved and their dedication is greatly appreciated by the GCA staff!  ​

 

ALL GNGC CHOIRS ARE DIRECTED BY KRISTEN MOSS
