Quote Of The Day

“Music education was a really big part of my life. I was not a very good student, but was very interested in music. I had a couple of teachers that saw that in me and encouraged me to follow my dreams. They took an interest in my music and knew there was something inside me that needed to get out. By and large, that kept me involved in school… We have the next Kenny Chesney sitting in these classrooms. They need to be encouraged and have instruments to play on, and they need teachers that take an interest in them and encourage them to follow their dreams.”

~ Rascal Flatts’ Jay DeMarcus at Nashville’s McGavok High School
