The Encore Entertainment Company is an auditioned, mixed, extra-curricular show choir. Members of Encore take pride in being a top-level show choir in the state of Ohio. Encore performs at regular choir concerts, for local groups, and at competitions across the midwest. Singer-dancers in Encore must have a 2.0 or higher GPA and must be a member of another school choir. Potential Encore members and current Encore members are highly encourage to take voice lessons.
