Senior Spotlight

Each week we will be featuring a new set of senior choir members.

Marilyn Jallah

My name is J.Marilyn Sonnie Jallah, older sister of Faith Naomi Jallah, daughter of Marie Sonnie Jallah and Manyango Jallah. I have been a Women’s Chorus, Accents, Surround Sound, and Debtones member here at Center Grove. My favorite choir memory was winning our first competition with the Accents my sophomore year. It pushed me to become more in tune with the show choir and find how to always improve. I’ve also been a member of the Student Council, Early College Ambassadors, the Girls Wrestling Team, and the Girls Track Team. I plan to go to Purdue University or stay in-state for college to continue my math in pre-med and medical school for Anesthesiology. I want to thank God for giving me the strength and determination to allow me to continue this activity through my years at Center Grove, and my parents for always supporting me through my choir journey from 6th grade through high school. I would also like to thank my teachers and administrators for always being there for all the choir students and coming out to support us in our skills.

Ashley Line

Hi, my name is Ashley Lynn Line, and I’m the daughter of Tom and Amy Line. I have three older siblings, Richard, Thomas, and Avery. I have been in the choral program for all four years, but in the competitive program for three years. I was a part of Women’s Chorus my Freshman year, Surround Sound Sophomore year, and The Debtones for my Junior and Senior years.

One of my favorite choir memories was my Sophomore year when the Sound System guys’ leather pants were moldy. I was a 5th-period TA alongside Ali Hopkins and Reghan Hawkins, which meant that we were the designated TAs who had to throw away the pants into the dumpster outside. It was so nasty that Mrs. Webb gave us rubber gloves to use. On a serious note, my favorite choir memory was going undefeated last year with the show Hello Dolly, Parton and competing at nationals in Los Angeles. It was truly an experience of a lifetime.

Outside of choir, I am the Senior Class Secretary in our student council. After high school, I plan to go to college to major in engineering or nursing to either become an architectural engineer or a pediatric nurse practitioner.

I would first like to thank my parents for their support throughout high school and for coming to every single competition, even the ones that were hours away. Also, I would like to thank Mr. Norman for the constant support over the years, and he knows how to cheer anyone up when they’re having a rough morning. Thank you, Mrs. Webb, for all of the work that you do in the costume closet. The choir program at Center Grove wouldn’t be where it is without you, as well as the costume closet volunteers. Thank you, Mr. Sanders, for all of the work you put into arranging our music, which is no easy task. Mrs. Dice, thank you for pushing our choir to be the best that it can be. And thank you to my cousin, Anna, who introduced me to the show choir world. I don’t think I would have joined show choir if it weren’t for you.

Ivy McClimon

Hello! My name is Ivy Renee McClimon. I am the daughter of Dawn and Brian McClimon and the sister of Zayden McClimon. I have been a part of the choral program all four years of high school, participating in Accents, CG Singers, and currently Debtones. A favorite memory from choir is traveling to Disney World with CG Singers to sing at a Candlelight Processional alongside Chrissy Metz. I am also currently involved in the Student Council, HOSA, Math NHS, Science NHS, and Spanish NHS. After high school, I plan to attend college to study biology and eventually pursue a career in medicine, specifically as an anesthesiologist. I would like to thank my family for supporting me in every aspect of life, my friends for making every day so much fun, and my directors for providing me with so many opportunities!
