MARCH 3, 2025— More than 30 Pal-Mac students represented the District on a county-wide stage during the annual Elementary All County Band/Chorus Festival at the end of February.

The festival, held at Newark High School, is an opportunity for the best of the best student musicians to perform together under one roof. To qualify for the honor is a process in it of itself, one which includes several hours of practice on top of a challenging audition process.
