He has discovered a new passion, which has taken over much of his time. He has taught himself how to compose digital music. He signed up for a digital media class this year, which encouraged him to develop this talent. He wrote a song in the spring which he entered into a couple of state competitions, and took 1st in the state in both competitions for his entry. The were the TSA (Technology Student Association) and the UMAF (Utah Multimedia Arts Festival) competitions. We are really proud of him for his efforts. We look forward to what he can do next year as he enters again.
He was also pretty involved in jazz and symphonic bands. We enjoyed several performances, including a dance the jazz band hosted and played for as a fundraising for the band trip.
He joined the band for a trip to California, which was great fun for him.
And he was elected the vice president of the band council for next year. So band will be a pretty big force in our lives next year.
