Teacher StoryMore than a lesson
KEYS has been an amazing addition to Bullard-Havens. It’s incredible to see students grow as they master new skills and express themselves through music. Peter, Charlie and Ed have been incredible instructors, encouraging and supportive, helping students get out of their comfort zone and truly shine. Without KEYS our students would not have access to music at school. In addition, students have had the opportunity to perform at school and at community events, exposing them to even more! I hope KEYS continues to be a part of the Bullard-Havens community for years to come!
