Elementary bannerSeven students earned their black belt in "Recorder Karate" with 5th grade recorders this year. Students begin earning belts in 4th grade by playing a song with a certain level of difficulty. In order to earn a black belt, they must earn a belt every time they have a chance including by playing the most difficult song ("Yankee Doodle") for a black belt. The following 7 students earned this honor: Elianna Bargmann, Joe Blake, Ava Cline, Peyton Cook, Brodie Edmonds, Brie Elmore, and Evan Sanchez.
