Congratulations, Scarlett! This high school junior credits school music for her music sight-reading skills, which she sees as a valuable language for connecting with musicians everywhere. She believes music is “a way to connect to cultures around the world.” Yes, indeed! School music matters.
Save the date — Dec 14, for an evening Winter Concert by our HS Strings and Band musicians. More details to come.
The Music Student of the Month series recognizes Orcas Island Public School musicians who work hard at their musical skills and whose love of music is an inspiration to their fellow student musicians. Thank you so much to the Orcas Island businesses who are sponsoring this monthly series throughout the 2023-24 school year that recognizes the efforts of student musicians and the value of school music!
