Little Bucs is designed for kids in grades 3 & 4 who love to sing! Third Grade students work with Mrs. Busovsky on Monday  afternoons from 2:20-2:50 and Fourth Grade students will work with Mrs. Busovsky on Tuesday afternoons from 2:20-2:50 for the first six weeks. Starting November 1st, both grades will combine to practice and perform as one. No autition needed to be a part of this group! Students learn proper vocal techniques through singing exercises, games and other activities. Students have various school performances throughout the school year and also encouraged to participate in other performance opportunities such as the school cabaret, National and Regional Honor Choirs as well as the Delaware Children's Honor Choir. There are also opportunities for field trips and other exciting musical events throughout the year! Students in 4th grade can participate in both Little Bucs Choir and 4th grade band if they choose. These opportunities do not conflict with each other. Students must remain in good standing academically with their teachers and also demonstrate good sportsmanship and behavior. Being a member of this ensemble is a privilege. ​

Every age is represented as well, from our EEC through our Senior class! The Caravel Little Bucs Elementary Chorus will be pairing with our High School Choral members to sing a selection at this year's cabaret! It is sure to be an awesome experience!

The SOZO Choir Workshop:
Our SOZO friends will return in the Spring of 2024!

Picture
Every other year a group of children travel from Sozo Children Uganda to America as the Sozo Children’s Choir, touring the States while leading worship at churches, schools, and events. Experience cultural Ugandan singing and dancing with African instruments, powerful corporate worship, and brief testimonies. Carael is incredible fortunate that the SOZO Children's Choir will again visit with us on their 2020 tour! Students in 'Little Bucs' will have the opportunity to spend a large part of the school day with the SOZO children making music, playing games and getting to know about each other's cultures. At the end of the school day, the SOZO Choir will perform for the entire Caravel Student Body with our CA 'Little Bucs' as their special guests. This was an absolutely phenomenal and humbling experience in 2018  and we are looking forward to the children to return! To learn more about the SOZO Choir:www.sozochildren.org/choir

American Young Voices Concert:
This event has not been announced yet for this year and may not be a possibility for the 2022-2023 school year. 

The benefits of a child's involvement in music are well-documented: but the benefits of being in the biggest school concert is quite simply life-changing. Having the opportunity to perform in some of the country's most renowned arenas has a massive impact on the children involved.
From the day the AYV music is introduced to over many months of rehearsals to the day of the performance, American Young Voices culminates when 8,000 children from hundreds of schools come together for a once-in-a-lifetime event. Instantaneously, there is an enormous sense of individual and collective achievement gained from this memorable and special experience.
One of the highlights of the whole process is to see the pride that the children have in their own performance, which is further amplified when their parents and families are able to share the experience as part of the audience.
“Every school needs to participate in this program. We had so much fun and so many tears of joy that our daughter got the opportunity to participate in such an outstanding program. We tell everybody about this program and we hope to come back and watch again next year." - Mary (Parent)
Furthermore, with the guidance of their teachers and the support of their classmates, students develop self-confidence and the ability to communicate as part of a team, which is invaluable. Add to this the numerous health benefits of consistent singing in rehearsals, from breathing regulation to relieving stress, and it’s no wonder that this program has been selling out around the world year after year.
“The hope and unity of humanity embodied in that song among thousands of children was very touching.” - Taeriah (Parent)
