Flathead High School hosted Great Falls High, Hellgate and Glacier High Schools for the AA Choir Festival. Our guest director was Dr. Brian Galante from Pacific Lutheran University. We had a wonderful, musical experience. Be sure to check out the slide show!

Nina Robart - Music Department Assistant

"The woman behind the piano - Robart a crucial part of Glacier music department" quotes the Daily Interlake - and that she is! Her professional background as a lawyer and a nonprofit manager - and even her college training as a musician and music educator- didn't completely prepare Nina Robart for her current position as accompanist and general music aide for Flathead and Glacier High Schools. Robart, the woman often heard playing flawless accompaniments for the choirs and orchestras at both Kalispell high schools, is responsible for more than what people see on stage. We love Nina and recently celebrated "Nina Appreciation Day." Thanks for all you do!

About Glacier High School Choirs

The GHS Choirs have demonstrated their pride in performance since the school's doors opened in the fall of 2007. A number of GHS choir students have sung in the Montana All-State Choir and in the All Northwest Honor Choir. There are many reasons attributed to the success and growth of GHS Choirs: supportive administration, good facilities, wonderful private teachers, and fantastic elementary and middle school music programs. But what really makes the GHS Choirs special are the talented, devoted students and their incredibly supportive families.
