Raa Spotlight

Every week we "Spotlight" one of Raa's outstanding groups, teachers, students, staff members, etc. Today, we spotlight our amazing Raa Steel Band. These students have worked hard all year and had the opportunity to travel to Tampa to perform at FMEA along with their amazing and super talented director, William Sahely. Along with this, Mr. Sahely was presented the Presiden's Concert plaque for his outstanding contributions. We are so proud of this group of young people and very fortunate to have Mr. Sahely lead them! CONGRATULATIONS to the band on a fantastic performance. Cheers for an even better 2nd semester. Raa Pride; Ram Tough!!!
