What makes a hit song? Our students found out firsthand during a songwriting workshop with CT State Troubadour Charlie Widmer. Students worked together to bridge the gap between musical theory and modern storytelling, learning how to pivot between word-driven and melody-driven composition. By the end of the session, the group had begun crafting their own original song, proving that every student has a unique story to tell and a melody to share.

A huge thank you to our PTA for their generous funding of this special event. It is because of your support that we can bring unique creative opportunities directly to our students!
