Take It From Me:

"The aesthetic and cultural response for many students to the fine arts is expressed through an opportunity to use a musical talent with which they have been gifted. This collaborative effort among schools, under the tutelage of a group of excellent musicians, is offering many students a chance to learn and display these gifts in a concerted way through a variety of musical expressions. We marvel at the results."

- Sister Caroleen Hensgen,

Former Superintendent of Schools, Diocese of Dallas

Take It From Me:

“Being in the band is something I refuse to give up.  I can’t think of a day where I did not experience music in some form.  Playing in a band gives the young musician a sense of pride that cannot be copied. 

- Ken Utz, Music Learning Alumnus and Band Director
