Rationale

Please join us in congratulation Lexie Dyas as she is awarded the October 2019 Artist of the Month. Lexie is a first year percussionist within the high school concert band. Lexie has jumped into a rigorous curriculum and has absolutely exceeded expectations. She always has her instruments set up and warms up without being asked. She also has scored very high on all of her assessments throughout her very first quarter in band. – all because of her hard work, and effort that she has put into learning. A lot of content has been thrown her way, and I am very excited for how fast she catches on. She has a very bright future ahead of her!
