SUMMIT STUDENTS DEVELOPMENT THEIR MUSIC APPRECIATION THROUGH LES PAUL

February 12, 2025

An important component of Summit’s Music Program is what they are learning about music history and influential people in the industry. We recently finished lessons about Les Paul’s important role in creating the solid-body electric guitar and his impact on the modern-day recording studio. Students created a timeline of his life and completed word searches about him. 🎸🎶

SLIDING THROUGH WINTER!

January 31, 2025

When it just won’t stop snowing, what else is there to do but grab a sled and slide into some fun.

For some students, winter in Butler is their first experience with snow, while others are toboggan pros. But everyone had a great time.

THANK YOU FREE GUITARS 4 KIDS

January 14, 2025

Isabelle S. has been learning and practicing on the school’s electric bass guitar since it was donated in February 2024. Nearing her graduation and departure from New Outlook, Free Guitars 4 Kids made her dream of owning a bass guitar come true. Free Guitars 4 Kids gifted Isabelle an electric bass guitar with an amp and the other necessary accessories to practice. “I’m praying it’s an instrument,” she said, unwrapping it excitedly. Upon revealing it was a complete Fender kit, she said, “I don’t think I’ve ever been this happy before.” This gift will continue to give to everyone who listens to Isabelle play.🎸🎶

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
