About the PVHS
Choir Director

He holds several degrees; the M.M. in Choral Conducting from Messiah College, and the B.M. in Music Education (voice) from West Chester University of Pennsylvania. He lives in Sinking
Spring with his wife, Lindsay; three boys—Sawyer, Jude, and Milo; and their golden-retriever, Millie.
Get to Know The PVHS Choir
The choral program at Pequea Valley High School is highly regarded. The Concert Choir’s singers are in grades 9-12, and account for one-quarter of the entire
student body. Many students in the ensemble are annually selected to attend County, District, Regional, State, All-East, and National honors choirs. Under Mr.
Bankert’s direction, and his predecessors, the 40-member Chamber Singers have received Superior Ratings and “Most Outstanding Choir” awards in many
adjudicated festivals throughout Toronto Canada, New Jersey, Virginia, and Boston. They have twice been ranked in the top-ten at the North American
Musical Festival, and are frequently accepted to perform at the Pennsylvania
Music Educator’s Association (PMEA), the American Choral Director’s Association(ACDA), and the National Association for Music Educators (NAfME) conferences.
Other accolades include invitations to perform for Governor Tom Ridge’s inauguration, performances in the Basilica in Baltimore, St. John the Divine in
NYC, and the Candlelight Processional at Disney World.
