Welcome to NCHSA

The NCHSA is a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting and developing contemporary a cappella music. Originally formed as a high school tournament, NCHSA has expanded its purpose and programming to focus on a cappella education and performance at every level. NCHSA's programs now include high school and college tournaments, regional Mini-Summits, a Summer Academy, and The National A Cappella Summit, where High School and College Finals are held alongside professional performances, workshops, clinics, and masterclasses.
