Music in Our School

MATT GRAHAM
About this episode

It's "Music in Our Schools Month" and all I can say is that music is thriving here at GBMS! We are so lucky to have such a highly talented and fun group of music educators. In this episode, students in the PAWdcast club, who also happen to be taking a music class, have a great discussion with all the teachers in the Music Department. We discussed their musical backgrounds, their interests, and they shared some of their personal experiences and stories. Not only did we get to know them a little better, but we were also able to see and hear why they are such a wonderful group that inspires students every day. We hope you enjoy this episode!
