We Get Emails
As you can imagine, the Rock Hill School Board has been getting a lot of emails. There have been a lot of appeals to the board to save items on the "cut" list by the school district administration. Unfortunately, something has to be cut, and most emails only focus on saving items, which is only part of the issue. One letter from Northwestern Band Director, Larry Wells, was particularly moving. You can read it (with permission from Mr. Wells) by clicking here.
