I have been teaching music in the public school system for 19 years now and loving every minute of it!

7 of our amazing young singers took the stage in Danville a couple of weekends ago and put on a beautiful concert. Congrats to all of our ACDA All-State singers! @JresRockets @soundsofJRES

JRES string kids played beautifully tonight at SWHS. For most, this was their very first concert. Great job kiddos! 🥰🎶 @JresRockets @soundsofJRES

What’s this I hear? JRES is doing a Disney musical this year. I wonder what it could be? @JresRockets

I’m a little late posting, but it was a busy week! The Spring concert was awesome! We had everything from Beethoven to Laufey and Bach to MJ. We were in the “Thick of It” with all the styles. Great job Rockets! @JresRockets

Our 5th graders studied world instruments and classifications, then created a “mutant” instrument using two selected instruments that one person could play. They worked with our amazing art teacher to do a Picasso inspired artwork and did a slideshow as well. @JresRockets

Look who I caught teaching music class Friday?! We are fortunate to have such a caring teacher; when Coach Cline is not coaching kids with sports, he’s coaching them in life. I’m thankful for a great teammate! @JresRockets

Check out these amazing musicians who I ran into at the 4th grade wax museum! Great job 4th grade!

JRES has got some truly talented kiddos that’s for sure! I’m so proud of all of our talent show performers. 40 amazing acts! Here’s a small sample: @JresRockets @soundsofJRES

[Casey Powell @soundsofJRES]

The talent show starts at 5pm on Thursday and it is going to be absolutely incredible! You must come see these kids. We have 40 performing acts so we have split the show into two parts. The second half starts at 6:30.

During our “Sharpen the Saw” time, we played a little musical chairs and enjoyed listening to songs that are trending with the kids right now. When they were “out”, they got to join the rhythm band or become a singer. @soundsofjres

We have really enjoyed our time with Mr. Payocong at JRES! We all wish him the best of luck in his next placement. I know that wherever he ends up, he is going to do great things! We were truly a dynamic duo. Team Powell-Cong! @JresRockets @soundsofJRES

[Casey Powell @soundsofJRES]

Here’s a couple of my favorite people doing what they do best. These boys know how to rock! They represented JRES and SWMS so well musically and in character. Congrats Chris, Daniel, and Tuangsung! @soundsofJRES @JresRockets

[Casey Powell @soundsofJRES]

The modern band groups had their first rehearsals today. They are gearing up for an awesome concert tomorrow. @soundsofJRES @JresRockets

[Casey Powell @soundsofJRES]

Our very own Anna Grace Ballard “graced” the stage today at the Kentucky Center in Louisville. She rehearsed for the last two days and sang beautifully. She was also asked to present the plaque to our wonderful accompanist at the end of the concert. @soundsofJRES @JresRockets
