Music

The JCHS music program is designed to increase the skill and performance level of each student and to develop aesthetic and cultural values through critical listening.  

Music is an essential part of life at JCHS from informal singalongs during the Shabbaton and Journeys to formal courses offered through the Visual and Performing Arts Department. Students may find opportunities to perform at Hakhel, our weekly all-school gathering, or as a band member for the fall musical, during the Student Coffeehouse, and during our annual Arts Review program. You’ll also frequently find students simply hanging out in the Courtyard with their instrument and playing music as a way to unwind.
