The Rock Valley Children’s Choir was established in 2002 by Leah Baskin and Dean Durst. Beginning as one small choir, the program has grown to four separate choruses that encompass grades one through 12. The Rock Valley Children’s Choirs formed a partnership with the Mendelssohn Performing Arts Center in 2006. The choirs are part of the Community Education division of Rock Valley College.
