UWG Concert Field Trip 6th Grade Only

Our trip to the University of West Georgia with sixth grade was a huge hit! Students learned about music making opportunities at the collegiate level, heard the UWG Wind Ensemble practice, and dined at the Z6 Dining Hall for dinner.

The parent chaperones were excellent as well as our students. Thank you to our transportation department for making our field trips happen and our school system for allowing our students to learn beyond the regular school setting and explore around us!
