Pierce letter: Thank you
I want to thank the Nampa School District for hiring Valerie Cangie, beginning orchestra teacher. My grandson, Junior Pierce, invited me to his first violin concert at East Junior High made up of 6th graders who have only received their violins in August and using bows only four weeks. They blended together in harmony the most moving performances I’ve ever heard of “Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star” and “Old MacDonald Had A Farm.” What an outstanding teacher is Valerie Cangie. Thank you from a very proud grandma.
Rosemary Pierce, Boise
