Six of the 170 students selected are from Wilson County Schools, and all attend Lucama Elementary. They rehearsed for two days with the clinician and performed a concert at the N.C. School of the Arts Stevens Center. It’s the first time the concert has happened since COVID-19, so it was really special, said Lucama music teacher Jana Winders.
