Dear Frenship ISD Students,

Welcome to the Frenship ISD Orchestras! As we embark on our third year of the Frenship ISD Orchestra Program, I want to take a moment to introduce myself and share my excitement about the upcoming year.

I’m coming to you from Abilene, Texas, where I have had the privilege of directing orchestras at Abilene High School and Cooper High School for 21 years. My experience in creating innovative performance ensembles has provided my students with numerous opportunities for personal growth and achievement. I am thrilled to be joining the exceptional Fine Arts administration, faculty, and families of Frenship ISD to offer similar enriching experiences for our orchestra students.

For those of you who are experienced string players, I look forward to collaborating with you to set a new pace and vision for the Frenship Orchestras.

If you are new to string instruments, we enthusiastically welcome you to the vibrant world of string music! There is much to explore, and I am eager to share my knowledge and passion for music with you.

Here’s to a year filled with discovery, connection, and unforgettable experiences!

Sincerely,

Darcy Radcliffe
