In harmony with the mission of Coastal Youth Choir ....to unite, mentor,

and transform the children of greater Savannah and the Low Country

through excellence in choral performance and music education...

Through a generous grant provided by Cultural Resources Center of the City of Savannah
and Gulfstream Aerospace, the board of directors of the Coastal Youth Choirs/Savannah Children's Choir, Inc.

is pleased to announce the continuation of the popular Choral Foundations Program, founded February 2020.
 
Choral Foundations is an outreach program that exists to enhance music choral  education throughout

Savannah Chatham County Public Schools (SCCPSS) by sharing choral music instruction across with music

educators in the partner schools. These partnerships are grounded in the CYC support of general music

and choral directors,offering a variety of resources, development of music curriculum, strategies and 
techniques, children’s choir repertoire, and more. Participating schools are invited to perform at

CYC Concerts throughout the year.
 
The CYC organization is passionate about the growth of every young singer. Through the

Choral Foundations Program the goal is to encourage, support, and strengthen existing school general

music and choral programs while uniting a diverse group of young people through music.

The CYC Choral Foundations Program hosts four Music Educator Nights throughout the school year as

well as funding for relevant professional development opportunities and conference attendance for teachers.
