Danvers Bank Donates $1,700 for Revere Public School Recorder Program

James McCarthy of Danvers Bank, and Patricia Pace, branch manager of Danvers Bank in Revere, donated $1,700 to the Revere Public Schools fine arts department for the fifth year. This donation will once again, help support the recorder program district wide. Ms. Pace explained to the students that she and the Danvers Bank are honored to support this program because it is so important for young people to include music as part of a well-rounded education. Every year for the past nine years third graders receive the benefit of learning to read music and play together in music class and perform for others at concerts and special events.

Third graders at the Paul Revere School, under the direction of Travis Ramsey, music teacher performed at the third annual "Silver Recorder Celebration' on Thursday, June 1. After the concert, Ms. Pace handed a check for $1,700 to one of the students. Principal Nicholas Quaratiello and Director of Fine Arts Karen Agnetta were in attendance.
