Today, our students lined the hallway to send off Acelyn Woolard with a well-deserved clap out!
Acelyn is headed to Grand Rapids to participate in the MSBOA All-State Band, where she was named the 5th best middle school flute player in the state of Michigan. This is an incredible achievement—and she is the first Freeland student to earn this honor!
Acelyn will rehearse with fellow All-State musicians over the next two days and perform this Saturday at the Michigan Music Conference. We are so proud of her hard work, dedication, and the positive impact she has on our band program.
🎶 Way to represent Freeland, Acelyn! 🎶
