(SHS) -- Sapulpa choir students are on the trip of a lifetime! They sang several Disney songs at Walt Disney World's 50th Anniversary Celebration in Orlando, Florida.

Choir teachers, chaperones, and more than two dozen students boarded a plane before the sun came up on Thursday morning.

They performed the morning of Friday, April 1, as part of Disney World's 18-month-long 50th Anniversary Celebration. Choir students rehearsed several well-known Disney songs for months in preparation for their big Disney World debut.

The set list included:

1. "Vuelie" from Frozen
2. "You Are the Music in Me" from High School Musical 2
3. "We Don't Talk About Bruno" from Encanto
4. "When You Wish Upon a Star" from Pinocchio
5. "Friend Like Me" from Aladdin

Last year, choir director Gina Myers sent in an application, including a video. Sapulpa High School choir students were some of just a few groups from across the country hand-picked by Disney to perform during the 50th Anniversary Celebration.

They received a Mickey Mouse trophy for their performance to display at Sapulpa High School.

The group plans to visit the Disney parks and other attractions in Orlando before returning to Sapulpa on Monday.
