Last week, students were treated to a Blues in the Schools jazz presentation by Tas Cru and Mary Ann Casale as part of a Surprise Attendance Day award. They explored the rich musical heritage of the Blues and its global influence as an expressive art form. Mr. Nohe and 8th grader Ashton Byrd were even invited on stage to showcase their harmonica skills, adding a fun and interactive element to the experience!
