It was an especially touching night for the 23 seniors who would be gracing the stage one last time before graduation. The crowd enjoyed heartfelt Senior Spotlights from four seniors who have been with Dr. White all four years of their high school careers.

Senior Spotlights

Kalaya Moody

I have been in the choir for a total of 4 years. I joined choir when I was a freshman. Sophomore year, I decided to join Gospel Choir!

The music department has definitely helped me venture out and learn more about who I am and to grow as a person. I will forever cherish the time and memories I have made here in J1 13. 1 plan to attend a 4-year college after high school!


Morgan jMorgan Jennings

I have been a part of the Windsor High School choral department for all of my four years of high school. I spent my freshman year in Concert Choir, then transitioned into Gospel Choir for my sophomore year and have been a part of it since then. Being a part of this music department has been a special experience for me and I have grown as much as a singer. I plan to attend Howard University after graduation and continue my music journey as a part of the Gospel Choir on campus.


Abigail

Abigail Baham

I have been part of the Windsor High School Choral Department for all 4 years of my high school career. I joined Concert Choir as a freshman before moving to the Award Winning Honors Chorale my sophomore year, where I have been ever since. In addition, I joined the Teens of Praise Gospel Choir this year. Being involved in the music department has been such a positive experience for me, as it has allowed me to gain confidence and grow as a performer. After high school, I will be starting EMT training.

Horatio Gledhill

I have been a part of Windsor High School's choral department for all four years. I started with Concert Choir and then sophomore and junior year in Honors Chorale, then joined the Teens of Praise Gospel Choir, doing both honors level groups in my senior year.

Throughout my time at WHS, the choral department has given me multiple opportunities to participate in solo concerts and other extracurricular activities to showcase my talents. The choral department has taught me so much about getting out of my comfort zone, breaking out of my shell, and working with a group to achieve a common goal. After high school, I hope to pursue a career in the arts and continue to be creative in my field of work.
