The End of Summer - I've Been Looking So Long at These Pictures of You

Filmed at the end of last school year at a public school, a sweet song showing how much school can mean to kids (notice the tears being wiped away toward the end) and how wonderful they can sound.

I hope everyone had a great summer. Enjoy the long weekend.

Sadly, many of the PS22 kids are moving on to NYC schools that have cut all of their music programs. Support music education!!!!

I totally agree. The humanities are undervalued as sources of ideas, personal enrichment, civilization, and achievement. Music is a universal language we should all learn how to speak. Great comment!
