Athena Elementary Students will learn from fiddler Kelly Thibodeaux this week. Kelly is a professional fiddler from Louisiana with more than 35 years playing the violin. He will be instructing elementary students all week. His specialty is teaching basic skills in a short period of time. Each classroom will have a recital on Friday to demonstrate their new musical skills. Parents will receive notification when those recital times will be.

We had fun with Dr. Seuss and dressing up at Athena Elementary for Dr. Seuss Day!
