All State BandI'm down here in Savannah for the All state band concerts, and let me tell you these kids rock. You can say all you want about the state of the schools in Georgia but these kids are the cream of the crop, and I include the orchestra's in this too, I've never really listened to an orchestra before but I bet the pros are only marginally better then these kids, and these kids are only middle school students. I can't say enough good things about the band directors in our county and especially Ricky Williams of Fayette Middle School, he lives and breathes band for these kids and can get the very best out of the kids, he has placed the highest number of kids in All State for the second year in a row which is a testament to his dedication to his students. this man goesw above and beyond the call of duty and I know the parents appreciate it even if we don't show it enough. For parents who want their kids to excell in school get them involved in band and watch them grow. hutch866's blog | login to post comments |
