Bradford fifth graders recently received awards in the Little Kids Rock national songwriting exhibition: Avani Pasala is the first-place winner of the solo songwriting exposition; she composed a song for the sitar called “Evening Scene.” Lucy Savage, Emmeline Rhee, and Abigail Shepheard-Walwyn wrote a parody of One Republic’s “Connection,” entitled “Conclusion” about writing an English paper. They won first place in the parody category. “Congratulations to these amazing musicians!” said Principal Naomi Kirkman.
