| Dear Joel,
Recently, I had the pleasure of witnessing your History of Rock n Roll program. On this
particular day, you were performing for the students at South Pines Elementary School during an
all-school assembly.
While the arts present a wonderful medium for a variety of learning experiences, students are not
always strongly motivated by a music history presentation. However, your performance was
both entertaining and educational. Without question, South Pines students and their teachers
really enjoyed your show, enthusiastically clapping their hands and singing along with you on
several tunes.
Your presentation was professional and included numerous opportunities for student
participation, which contributed to the high interest level of the audience. Since the students
attention was strongly focused upon your History of Rock n Roll show, they listened
attentively to your powerful, up lifting message about being successful in life by staying in
school and being drug free.
Your efforts through music, to stress and model the importance of staying in school and being
drug free are appreciated. Keep up the good work for students!
