The Mankato Children's Chorus is dedicated to providing an opportunity for any interested youth to experience the joy of singing while developing healthy vocal techniques. Through rehearsal and performance of quality choral music, singers will develop artistic expressiveness, self-confidence, a cooperative spirit, and the joy of working toward and achieving goals with other singers.

Teach elementary and secondary age students a variety of choral music that they are able to perform publicly. Twice a year, the students will perform their repertoire for a public audience. Their proficiency will be measured by the audiences’ reaction and desire to return. 2: Increase participation in the Mankato Children's Chorus through rigorous outreach and communication. Membership is tracked on an annual basis. An increase in membership both mid-season and at the start of the fall 2018 season will show success in this outcome.
