Glee club? Glee is right. | ashpsych

https://ashpsych.wordpress.com/2011/12/02/glee-club-glee-is-right

Skip to primary content. December 2, 2011. Glee: Noun – Great delight or pleasure. A glee club is traditionally that of an American show choir in high schools. The idea of a show choir is that a group of singers will perform music, often with other forms of performance involves as well, such as dancing.
