Making music

From left, fourth-grade students Jacob Williams, Toby Suphachai, Miranda Moseley and Matt Allen play musical instruments in H.G. Olsen Elementary School teacher Gay DeMontel's music class on Friday, Sept. 19. DeMontel bought three xylophones, a metallophone and other music supplies with a $2,500 grant awarded to her in the spring by the Port Aransas Education Foundation. The non-profit foundation currently is in the midst of planning its Mardi Gras in October fundraising event.
