Our own Orchestra teacher, Wendy Hartman, hit a high note when she was inducted into National Honor Roll’s Outstanding American Teachers. The program was established to provide positive recognition to educators who have been identified by their students as having had the greatest influence on their lives, either as a student or as an individual. Congratulations!
