What an incredible experience for our students last week! The talented Portland Symphony String Quartet musicians visited Carl J. Lamb, Sanford Pride, and Margaret Chase Smith schools on Thursday, May 9th. The quartet brought the beloved story of "Swimmy" to life through music and interactive performances. Students listened as the violin, viola, cello, and bass created the sounds of the deep blue sea. They even got to join Swimmy's journey by moving their hands to the music!
