Six students at Clinton Avenue School recently hit all the right notes, winning brand new guitars for their heartfelt essays in the Mary Wade Essay Contest. Students wrote about the importance of music in their lives, showcasing their passion and creativity.
The exciting initiative was made possible through a special collaboration between acclaimed musical artist Vincent Rodriguez and the non-profit organization, Smiles I Can't See. This wonderful organization dedicates itself to providing guitars to children, fostering a love for music, and opening doors to new possibilities. The winning students were thrilled to receive their new instruments and were ready to embark on their musical journeys.
