New TRS Talks Video: “Banding Together to Stir Up Treble”

He’s with the band! Retirement is “music to the ears” of one TRS member. Former Dahlstrom Middle School Band Director LeRoy Gerdes retired, but he isn’t missing a beat! Gerdes, Dahlstrom’s first band director, now volunteers at the school alongside current band director Rachel Janek and student teacher Frank Deleon. In this "TRS Talks," a trio of educators, from three generations, are stirring up treble to make joyful music.

We hope you enjoy meeting them! Watch here.
