The Art of Music

After eight years of teaching at Nemaha Valley, Mr. Dirk Colgrove resigned and Mrs. Susan Gartner began teaching in his place. Not only did she have to get used to the school system and the students, but the students had to get used to her.
Besides working with the band, Mrs. Gartner teaches vocal class. Vocal students also do a warm up at the beginning of class. During class, the students work on songs for upcoming concerts and performances. The most important performance the students give is at the end of the year. They practice hard and learn new songs hoping to do well at regionals.
"Regionals is the most important performance we do all year. That is where we want to earn a one rating," said Lacy , jr.
If you have wanted to be a member in a group and ever play the music everyone is singing and dancing to or show off your voice by singing, join the band or vocal group.
