In honor of Women's History Month, students in Mr. Webb's social studies classes are creating one-pagers about trailblazing women from around the world! 8th grade student Piper Conlin chose to do her one-pager on German pianist Clara Schumann. While practicing for her upcoming piano recital, Piper noticed the name "Schumann" on a piece of music she and her piano teacher had selected. As it turns out, Piper is playing a piece written by Clara's husband, Robert, as part of her recital! Piper was so excited to find out that she is playing a piece of music that Clara herself played! Good luck, Piper!
