Mics For Elementary Choral Program?

My principal asked me what sound equipment I need to assist my choirs and talent shows to be heard.  (Lucky, I know) I would like to get 4 choral mics.  I'm thinking phantom powered condensors, two on a stand to cover 6-7 risers.  This is elementary school so durability matters but so does price and sound production.  Any suggestions off the top of your head? 
 
I am also asking for a few wireless mics and really like the Shure SLX systems.  Any suggestions for head worn mics or systems that come with these instead of lavaliers?  They would be used for dance acts in the talent show and potentially future dramatic shows.

For on-stage choir mics, Audix makes excellent products. For wireless head-worn system, Samson has affordable lineups.

Hopefully you will have seen the thread entitled "Shure choir microphones".  I guess I accidentally clicked on NEW MESSAGE instead of REPLY, a day or so ago.  Mic'ing an elementary choir and elementary musical are two subjects I learned a lot about....the hard way!
