VCS is pleased to announce and offer our congratulations for our 2018 award to Ms. Shannon Crowley, a graduating senior in the Math & Science Academy at Ocean Lakes High School and a fourth-year senior at the Governor’s School for the Arts in the Vocal Music strand. She will be studying under Professor Mark Rucker in the fall when she attends Michigan State University. Shannon began singing at the age of six in the Virginia Children’s Chorus. Prior to turning her focus to classical voice, she participated for several years in Shannon Crowley musical theater with Theatrix Productions. She has taken voice with Kathi-Lee Ocean Lakes High School Wilson and currently studies under Alan Fischer. Shannon has participated in numerous vocal competitions, including the local and regional chapters of the National Association of Teachers of Singing (NATS), where she was twice selected top vocal performer.
