This past weekend all four elementary schools and our two middle schools had students perform in the OCMEA Elementary All-County Music Festival at Twin Towers Middle School. Pine Bush had 29 students participate in the festival in band and chorus. An extra special honor was having three students from our district selected to do solos in the chorus concert – Courtney Flynn (Crispell), Joseph Andre (CVMS), and Rhianna Evans (PAK).
