Congratulations to all the music teachers of Gwinnett County Public Schools! Thank you to the…Read More Principals and Parents for supporting music in the schools. Music can help children learn the importance of teamwork and discipline, while giving them the skills necessary to become confident and successful adults of the future.

My own H.S. band director used to keep stats about his students, so that every time the BoE or the…Read More school itself would talk about cutting funding or dropping support, he could show them how misguided their efforts really were.
In a school of ~1800 kids, the list of A-B students each semester would number around 300 kids; nearly half of them would be students in the band program, which numbered around 200-250 all told. The all-A Honor Roll? 8 in 10 or more were band kids. The valedictorian my senior year was a clarinet player who was in the marching and symphonic bands all four years she was there. (She also played field hockey, for whatever that's worth. ^_^)
Kudos to Gwinnett County, Cobb County, and Fulton County for receipt of this award.
I'd like to offer a personal shout out to OCHS band director Mark Provost who has more than done his part to try and put Oconee County on that map, too, and to all those in the State of Georgia who are working to put their communities up there as well.

I read a lot about the Crime in the City of Lilburn, Most of it is on Lawrenceville Hwy,…Read More Shoplifting, Mostly at Wal-Mart & Home Depot. It is in the Patch daily, in the Patch today, I think Lilburn Police should just keep a Special car up in these Two places 24 hours a day. (Save Gas).
I think Lilburn Police, does a good job with the capture of these shoplifters.
Crime has incresed a lot since 1992, when I came to Lilburn, I have heard a lot of people moving out. Most of the trouble is from Lawrenceville Hwy over to I-85. From Rockbride Rd. to Pleasthill Rd.
Lilburn needs new business along Lawrenceville Hwy or around Lilburn, Good Resturants, Clothing Stores, Stores like the AVENUES, at 124 Hwy in Snellville.
I hope the Crime goes down
Thanks

Agreed, Crime is the top issue next to people just not taking care of their property anymore. No…Read More good places to eat or shop and that's why everyone leaves the area to find anything decent.
Juveniles loitering in neighborhoods, grass knee high, feral cats all over and it's just becoming another area ruined by crime and undesirables. Unless the police and citizens are more vigilant and part of the solution and not the problem, we'll lose the area to becoming another dump filled with crime and meth houses.
