This week, Garfield School’s chorus traveled to the Prudential Center in Newark and combined their voices with over 6,000 students from schools around the NYC region. This exciting “American Young Voices” concert was one of the largest annual children’s choir performances in the world! Thank you to Mr. Burzynski for providing valuable opportunities to our students in music education.
