Dear LRCA Instrumental Families,
God's provision is never ending. Such is the case in His provision of the future leadership of our campus' thriving instrumental programs.
It is my pleasure to announce Mrs. Angela Goff has accepted the position as LRCA Director of Instrumental Music effective immediately. Additionally, please join me in formally welcoming Mr. Taylor Brandon to the LRCA campus as our new Junior High Director and Assistant High School Director. Please read more about Mrs. Goff and Mr. Brandon in their bios below. It's worth repeating... God is so very good!
Both are anxious to meet students and families. Mark your calendars for next Monday night's "Meet the New Directors" Ice Cream Social hosted by the Instrumental Parent Organization. I am confident your student will leave excited about the 2018/19 school year!
Thank you and enjoy your summer,
Lynn Beardsley
