As 6th and 7th graders register for electives next year, please consider Music Connections/Choir.

The benefits of music education include a sense of community and belonging, learning to work with others, increased self-esteem, resiliency, enhanced brain development and appreciation of cultural diversity. Music is also a foreign language and connections can be made throughout one’s lifetime! Here are some pictures of wonderful music experiences we’ve had at Bryant this year!
