Note from Mrs. Zimmeman:
March is Music in Our Schools Month and reporter, Void Braun, wanted to share a special article for this event. Void interviewed MHS teachers to find out some of their favorite albums.
Before you check out the albums though, I have to give a shout out to Void. Void is active in many areas related to music at Menasha High School. I am not musical AT ALL, and I cannot help but feel the music in my heart when Void plays. Not only do I get to hear Void's awesomeness in action, but his excitement for music and theater shine and make me so excited for anything that involves him. The same can be said for these album picks. What might not be clear is that behind the scenes, Void previews all the albums and spends hours listening to the albums before giving feedback. Thank you Void for sharing your passion with us.
