Encourage all to attend school concerts

Published 8:13 am Friday, June 13, 2014

Dear Editor,

What a beautiful show Mr. Stiles, the Middle School and High School students performed last week.

I was surprised to find that the bleachers were sparsely occupied. This was my first time coming to see the students perform. It was impressive! The students and Mr. Stiles had put a lot of effort into the program!

I would like to encourage everyone to attend future performances whether or not they have a student participating in a band. It was a joy to see our young talented musicians perform. I am looking forward to attending future programs.
