Please check for videos in the coming weeks that will be uploaded to YouTube Channel, “MrBoltonGMS”.
Kelly Williams, Director of Fine Arts, “ Words cannot express how incredibly proud I am of GMS’s music teachers Eric Bolton and Evann Carter, their collaboration in teaching music and aligning the music program at Garfield has been amazing to watch. All their hard work and dedication showed last night at the winter concert, the number of students they were able to showcase was higher than ever before with the beginning of a new choir and the expansion of Mr. Bolton’s band classes. It was heartwarming to see the students preform to a full auditorium! Every seat was full! “
