CCS final Christmas program delivers variety of entertainment
The second and final 2019 Christmas program for Chase County Schools (CCS) was held last Thursday in the CCS auditorium. Vocal students were directed by Jodie Liess and band students by Agnes Strand. The 5th grade and 6th grade band students each alternated instrument and vocal performances which were rewarded with applause by a house-packed audience. Also performing that evening in their specific genres were the junior high singers, high school choir, the high school band, jazz band and the 9th St. Singers.
