Due to popular demand of students and a couple of our new students expressing their musical talent, Felicity School has decided to start a music group with five of our students, featuring staff assistance from our principal and veteran guitar player, Dr. Dignam, as well as one of our paraprofessionals, Mr. Farca and one of our social workers, Ms. Swillum. Students voted on band names such as “Berto Band”, “Rising From Ashes” and “Edgeucation”, and decided on “Edgeucation”. Students will receive English and Elective credits, depending on their credit needs and involvement in the band. These credits would be defined as writing up appropriate song lyrics as well as working on researching the elements of musical instruments.
Featured below is a “before” picture of the practice space as well as one of Edgeucation’s guitarists, stay tuned for the finished product and more practice pictures!
