The Power of Music in School -- "A Thousand Years" Christina Perri & PS22




There have already been posts on PS22 music program. Just a quick post of one video.

For those that haven't already seen more on it, you can read here:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PS22_Chorus

The PS22 Chorus is an elementary school chorus from Public School 22 in Graniteville, Staten Island (New York). It is composed of 60-70 fifth-graders, and is directed by Gregg Breinberg. Students are assigned to the chorus after an annual auditioning process at the beginning of each school year. PS22 is the largest elementary school in Staten Island which draws students from a wide cross section of ethnic groups and socio-economic levels. The chorus meets twice a week during school hours to practice, and performs throughout the year at school functions, local events, and on special requests.
