A man of great strength and grace. As talented a musician as he was an actor. The epitome of class. An sudden unexpected sharp painful grief for our artistic family. An unimaginable suffering for his personal family and loved ones. Godspeed my friend. You made your mark here. RIP

From academic achievement to attendance, the arts perform!
Research shows that on average #TxEd students who took 4+ arts courses had higher pass rates on standardized tests—and attendance—than students who took the minimum.
