The Harrison Intermediate School Choirs are led by Mr. Brent Barnes and Ms. Chloe Spellmann.  Consisting of around 220 sixth grade students over four classes, the Buccaneer Choirs are active in the school and community and compete annually in a choral festival.  All sixth grade students interested in singing are placed in one of the four choir classes based on schedule.

In addition, all Harrison fifth grade students benefit from choral instruction once a week throughout the year.  In this class, a preview of choral music is provided to students as they sample the course and begin to find their voice.
