Time 2 Chime Makes the Front Page!
Did you see Wednesday's Journal Gazette newspaper? If so, then surely you noticed the large photograph of Time 2 Chime on the front page!

Time 2 Chime is a group of homeschooled students that meets twice a month at the Main Library to learn to read music and practice ringing handchimes. On Tuesday, a photographer from the Journal Gazette stopped by the beginning group's rehearsal to take photos and put together a video. You can view the video on the Journal Gazette's website.
This year, over thirty students have been involved in Time 2 Chime. While we aren't enrolling new students at this time, everyone is invited to attend the group's performance in May (watch here for more details to come).
