🔥 Band Spotlight - Piper Klein 🔥
Hi! I’m Piper Klein, an 11-year-old 5th grader at Cicero Prep Academy. I love being on stage and have a passion for singing and performing. I was proud to be named runner-up in the Bard Recitation for my performance of “A Dream Within a Dream” by Edgar Allan Poe.
When I’m not performing, I stay active as a gray belt in jiu-jitsu and a member of the dance squad at Dance Connection. I’ve also had the honor of singing the national anthem for Phoenix Rising Soccer Club
I bring energy, confidence and heart into everything I do-on stage and off.
