March is Music in Our Schools Month, and there are some amazing people that make up the music programs in our school. Thank you for all your hard work. You may not know this, but music education in schools helps students develop critical thinking skills, confidence, social and emotional skills; as well as deepening their connection with the school environment.
Thank you to all of our music teachers: Mrs. Rinker, Ms. Bloodgood, Mr. Lynch, Mr. Durfee and Mr. Justice!
