Music Theory - Gold Medalist with Texas Music Teachers Association

Haley decided to take a 2nd Music Theory Exam this year to put her ahead of her grade level.  She ACED it (100% with the bonus question).  This is a great segue into pre-AP Music theory that she's taking next year, or the following year (we'll see how much she has on her plate and adjust as necessary).

Fencing sabre

Fencing tournament:  Day one was 14 and younger.  Haley placed last in this group.  She did get in a few great hits, but some of the girls were VERY good - having traveled as far away as California, fencing 5+ years.  A great opportunity to fence UP and learn.  

Day 2 was the 12 and younger group.  Haley came in 8th place - just well enough to stand on the winners podium and earn a medal!!  Not too shabby for a first [real, nationally qualifying] tournament!!

So important to make it crystal clear that college is EXPECTED and the only logical and natural next step in an educational journey.  The only decision that has to be made is WHICH COLLEGE?!!
