Opening night for the premiere of Cycle of Life was magical. To share a piece of music with the world for the first time is incredible, and to do it alongside @aramdemirjian and @tessalarktweets was even more so!
Join us for our final performance tonight https://t.co/3Ynt3KN9YH
I often think of a boy I once taught who was in the process of being expelled. He would often find his way to the music room and play the piano when he should have been elsewhere. He told me it was because his Granny would let him play it at her place, and he felt safe and happy.
Our students need more recess, unstructured play, Physical Education, all the Arts, and extracurricular activities! That's how we make their social/emotional health a priority.
@gmprincipal @gmsbandrocks@theFCsound Super proud of all our GMS music students who competed at Music in the Parks today! Returning to Fountain City exhausted and with new bling for the π case!
