Student Teaching at Forestville

We are pleased to welcome Alex Ragland from Liberty University to Forestville! Alex is student teaching and is preparing to earn his bachelor's degree in Music Education.  He has been doing a phenomenal job of teaching the students at Forestville and helping out with our music clubs.  Alex is a talented strings player who plays the guitar, banjo, and ukulele. Alex has been a huge asset to our ukulele ensemble and has shared a plethora of knowledge with the students in this club.  Below you can see Alex teaching about rhythm in one of our third grade classes.  Alex is a distinguished musician and educator and we know he will leave an indelible mark on the students that he teaches in the future!
