Week 3 totals

This has been an incredibly hard week in my home town.

Here's why...

And one of my students, a year younger than Braylee in school, wrote a song in her memory, going to try and post it here

She'll make the list this week, being awarded 100 points, 50 for performing and 25 for writing a song and 25 for uploading it to the internet for others to share :)

With that I'd like to say how I believe music is therapeutic and helpful in times of distress, I personally am grateful for it in my own life and hope my students use it to help them cope during times of duress. May God be with each of you this summer! All my love, Ms. Lori
