Music for Youth Bravo! We were so impressed by the beautiful string instrument performance of Dryden students and others across the district. What a wonderful example of the fruits that come from practice and dedication! | Remembrance & Hope We thank Music Teacher, Mr. Deptula, for bringing our community together with his heartfelt performance on the morning of September 11. Our students and community are filled with hope for a peaceful future as we focus on good deeds and including others. | Thank you, LMC Volunteers! LMC Director, Mrs. Kovacic, and Teaching Assistant, Mrs. O'Hara welcomed and trained many volunteers last week. We greatly appreciate the extra help as we nurture each child's love of reading and learning and finding that "just right" book! |
