In the fall of 2018 at a teacher inservice, the student council approached staff about becoming a Unified Sports school. As immediate enthusiasm grew, the lightbulb went off in our heads and we turned to the head of StuCo at the time and said, “WE CAN DO UNIFIED SHOW CHOIR.” That is when Unity, Inc. was born. In that first year, the group performed choreography for the school at Honor’s Fest of 2019 and the crowd lept to it’s feet.. In 2020, the group participated in its first competition at Washington Best of Show, we were the subject of an interest session at the 2020 MWACDA Conference, and won the 2020 national Unified for Inclusion Award from the PACER’s National Bullying Prevention Center. What followed was schools from all over the Midwest reaching out and asking, “how do we start this at our school?” The momentum was at its peak and then… CoVid.
With the threat of the pandemic and a vulnerable community of performers, Unity, Inc. had to take a break for both the 2021 and 2022 seasons. We reinstated the show choir in 2023, and are so happy to say this season is going to be the best yet! Watch for our performance at the Jefferson High School "Cavalier Classic" competition and Roosevelt's Friends & Family Night!
