Congratulations to Junior Gwen Rosenhagen on winning 1st Place in the Niles District Library Art Show this past March for her drawing! It's gorgeous.
Second grade is learning about the life cycle of the caterpillar! The larva are turning into pupa right now! The students love watching their caterpillars grow.
Congratulations to Ruth Livengood, who was named Michigan School Band and Orchestra Association (MSBOA) District 6 Teacher of the Year by her peers!
When Mrs. Livengood started at Brandywine, the band program had dwindled down to 11 students. With her leadership, the program numbers doubled in a year, she established a marching band soon after, and in five years had close to 80 students in a small Class "C" high school band consistently earning Division 1 ratings at MSBOA festivals.
An accomplished professional trombonist, Ruth’s performance credits include a Grammy-nominated album (Aleluya by Lucia Parker) and a multi-year tenure performing with jazz artist Ed Bagatini. Her versatility as a musician is further reflected in her work with various orchestras, brass quintets, and ensembles throughout Southwest Michigan and Northern Indiana. Additionally, she shares her expertise as a member of the adjunct faculty at Lake Michigan College, where she serves as a low brass professor.
We are so PROUD to call Mrs. Livengood a Bobcat! Congratulations!
