Love makes a comeback in the classrooms with Tri-M’s annual “Singing Grams” on Valentine’s Day!
Every Valentine’s Day, the singing and instrumental telegramers go from classroom to classroom delivering a fun song to sing to recipients from buyers who request the perfect song for their loved ones.
The groups this year involve two singing gram groups and three orchestra groups featuring members of the National Music Honors Society.
Singing Grams have been a blast in 2024, with over 250 sales! Students and teachers enjoy the embarrassment of their classmates and teachers!
Oliva Still, freshman states, “It was really cool watching my friends get them. When I got mine, it was super fun and the group that sang did an amazing job.
A junior, Lexi Zelinsky adds, “It was so fun to get a singing gram during my classes, and it was so nice to spend Valentine’s Day hearing my friends sing to my teacher and me! The groups did amazing, and I’m so excited for next year”
While the groups have a great time going door to door singing/playing each gram, each group is expected to make it to each class before the period ends, but this adds to great friendships resulting within the groups.
Hana Mazak, senior, adds onto what it takes to be a part of Singing Grams, saying, “We have to be well-coordinated to keep up throughout the day, but this ultimately strengthens my relationship with my fellow musicians.”
Jimmy Schneider, junior, says that the friendships he strengthens during singing grams are one of his favorite parts. “My favorite part of singing grams is spending the day singing with friends and making others feel awkward as you sing to them.”
In the end, everybody loves the Singing Grams tradition held at BBHHS. Look forward to seeing them again next year for some more embarrassing love songs!
