I love that Irving continues with its music program. I attended Irving Middle school and Ms. Burns taught orchestra & I leArned to play the violin soooo many years ago. Now I have started to study violin again at the Guadalupe Cultural Arts Center. I work at San Antonio College and I want to work with parents at Irving & with your comm rep to see how we can partner with you and possibly identify scholarships for Yur students to study music & continue at SAC in their future. 486-0947 SAC
