JUNE | Go-Go in School, Student Performances & More!

Events | FROM THE CLASSROOM TO THE STAGE

On Thursday, June 8th, at 6 PM, cheer on The MusicianShip students who've spent after-school hours learning an instrument, making beats, or operating behind the scenes of a music production! Meet the teaching artists and staff making a difference in the lives of young people in the district. Parents and guardians, from 7-8 PM, stop by for a brief reception! Register today! (Note: RSVP REQUIRED)

News | GO-GO AT ACHIEVEMENT PREP

Thanks to teaching artists Jared Bailey (@mkzulumusic) and Deacon Izzy (@deaconizzy), youth from TMS partner schools have had the chance to learn about the different music influences of Go-Go to keep the beat going in the district! Recently at Achievement Prep, duo 1STOP shared their own Go-Go version of their school song, singing and dancing along with 3rd and 4th graders. Check out the video recap below! (See photos [here](insert photo link).)

| KENNEDY CENTER PERFORMANCES |

At DC Public Schools' annual performing arts festival, Randle Highlands elementary and after-school music students came together for two performances! A recorder performance instructed by Mrs. Keeta Jones, followed by a special band performance conducted by Mr. Jared Bailey, wowed audiences at the Kennedy Center! Props to our 3rd-grade BAND apprentices—a distinguishable feat since most youth don't have the opportunity to join the band until middle school! (Click the images below for a recap of their performances)
