Fargo Public Schools - Board of Education Meeting - Live Broadcast - March 10, 2020
Student Performance - Music In Our Schools Month - Ainsley Rentfrow
Clarinet & Soprano Saxophone Duet - Marcus Hart & Joanna Lin, Davies
A
Johanna
Linn
and
Marcus
Hart
are
here
from
Davies
high
school
they'll
be
performing
a
clarinet
and
soprano
saxophone
do
it.
These
students
had
a
band
concert
last
night,
the
raging
red
band
festival
today,
which
were
keeping
some
some
good
news,
secret
and,
and
then
Allstate
of
course,
which
is
coming
up
in
a
few
weeks
and
Marcus
also
shared
with
me.
He
had
a
rehearsal
and
it's
going
to
rehearsal
and
then
has
another
group
activity
after
so
we're.
We're
thankful
that
you're
here
to
share
share
with
us.
Johanna
is
a
senior.
A
She
shall
be
playing
clarinet
and
she
is
in
the
Allstate
Orchestra
this
year
and
Marcus
is
a
sophomore
and
though
he's
playing
saxophone
for
us
today,
he
is
actually
going
to
be
in
the
Allstate
choir.
I
also
want
to
quickly
point
out
that
last
year
there
were
four
Fargo
students
that
scored
a
perfect
score
on
the
AC
T's
and
all
four
of
those
students
are
very
involved
in
the
music
program
at
the
Fargo
public
schools.
A
In
fact,
three
of
those
four,
while
all
four
were
in
all
state
groups
last
year
and
three
of
those
four
were
section
leaders
for
their
section
at
Allstate
and
Johanna
is
one
of
those
and
she
actually
very
shyly
and
politely
said
I've.
It's
actually
been
two
years
that
I
was
section
leader
and
and
this
year
she
did
tie
with
somebody
so
she's,
giving
that
that
person
an
opportunity.
A
So
after
Johanna
and
Marcus
perform
for
you,
they're
gonna
do
some
sharing
of
their
experiences
and
music,
where
it's
taken
them
and
some,
quite
frankly
astonishing
things
that
they've
done
with
it.
So
without
further
ado,
Johanna
Lynne
and
Marcus
Hart
will
be
performing
the
first
movement
of
Gordon
Jacobs
saxophone
duet.
B
Well,
hi
I'm,
Marcus
start
from
Davies
high
school
I
think
we
both
just
really
like
to
thank
you
for
the
continuous
support
in
music.
It's
a
huge
influence
in
many
students,
lives
and
I'm,
really
grateful
for
it
and
all
of
the
opportunities
that
surround
me
through,
like
all
the
bands
choirs
theatrics,
it's
just
a
huge
part
of
my
life.
So
really
thank
you
for
all
the
continuous
support,
I
really
appreciate
it
and
I
know
many
others
do
too.
C
Okay,
my
name
is
Joanna
when
I
have
a
little
bit
of
a
longer
speech,
I'm
a
senior
at
Davies
high
school
and
a
pianist
and
clarinetist
I
started
playing
the
clarinet
seven
years
ago
in
sixth
grade
and
I
didn't
really
have
any
big
dreams
or
expectations
for
my
plane.
But
I
couldn't
be
more
glad
that
I've
continued.
The
clarinet
music
has
allowed
me
to
meet
some
of
the
kindest
and
funniest
people
they're
playing
on
ensembles
like
Gotham
Area,
Youth,
Symphony,
our
school
band
and
many
local
honor
bands.
C
Music
has
taught
me
perseverance
and
dedication
and
has
even
allowed
me
to
travel
across
the
country.
Last
summer,
I
was
extremely
honored
to
be
one
of
three
clarinetists
nationwide
to
perform
on
tour
with
the
National
Youth
Orchestra
chu-lee
played
in
Miami
and
New
York
City
and
ended
our
tour
with
a
performance
in
Carnegie
Hall.
That
was
truly
the
best
summer.
I've
ever
had
in
my
17
years
of
life
and
I
now
have
friends
from
all
over
the
country.
C
Because
of
my
love
for
music
I
also
founded
the
501
C
3
non-profit
resonates
two
years
ago.
My
mission
through
resonate
is
to
bring
high
quality,
music
exposure,
education
and
inspiration
to
rural
areas.
This
is
done
through
inspired
performances
where
local
chamber
ensembles
travel
to
a
rural
school
perform
and
then
uniquely
explain
how
they
interpreted.
The
music
resonate
has
since
inspired
over
117
young
musicians
from
three
schools
and
will
have
performed
at
nine
burl
towns
by
the
end
of
the
school
year.
C
Music
has
open,
has
opened
the
door
to
so
many
incredible
experiences
and
people,
and
you
don't
have
to
be
a
music
major,
to
appreciate
everything
that
Fargo
Public
Schools
music
has
had
to
offer
I'm
actually
majoring
in
business
in
a
new
and
International
Studies,
but
music
will
always
be
a
lifelong
love
of
mine
I'm,
so
grateful
that
I've
had
the
opportunity
to
grow
as
a
musician
and
a
person
and
I
hope
the
Fargo
Public
Schools
can
continue
providing
the
gift
of
music
to
many
more
students
in
many
years
to
come.
Thank
you.
