Bravo! Hillcrest Cellist Earns National Honors

Bravo! Hillcrest student Carl Colby is about to take a bow with the nation’s elite student musicians. The cellist has become the first student in Canyons District history to be named to the All-National Honor Orchestra, sponsored by the National Association for Music Education.

As part of this prestigious recognition, Colby will join talented student musicians from across the country for a gala concert in Nashville, Tenn., where he will perform under the baton of some of the nation’s most prominent conductors. The Oct. 30, 2013 performance will be held at the Presidential Ballroom of the Gaylord Opryland Hotel.

Colby performed at the Tuesday, Oct. 1, 2013 meeting of the Canyons Board of Education. See our YouTube channel for a front-row view of his performance. Also, you can watch Colby talk about the national honor and perform live on 2News.

Lucie Chamberlain

Alta View Elementary

If a movie about super teachers were ever made, Lucie Chamberlain would be a prime candidate for a leading role. Fortunately for her kindergarten students at Alta View Elementary, she already thrives in a supporting role for them. Parents thank her for being a “super teacher.” She is also described as an “amazing colleague.” Whether students need help in the classroom or from home while sick, Lucie goes above and beyond to help them learn, overcome fears, and feel important and cared for. Lucie is the reason a number of kids went from hating school to loving it, according to parents. The way she exudes patience, sweetness, positive energy, and love for her students with special needs melts is appreciated and admired. One parent noted: “Both my kids wish she could be their teacher forever.” Another added:  “She treats every student like their learning and their feelings are her priority.” Super teacher, indeed!
