Hi Iam a student at Lawndale High and I am so estatic that a music teacher has finally arrived. I am very talented, I love to sing and I have a mature voice. I longed for so many years to play guitar and sing at the same time. I was just wondering what class do you recommend they all sound awesome!!!!!!!!!

Hi Shakina,
We would love to have your wonderful voice in the Commercial Music Class. In fact, if you know any other singers, we need a few more.
Sincerely,
Harwell

Hello my fellow Cardinal musicians.

Almost 2 years ago today, I started a rally posting on the old LHS Alumni site to bring back to the Cardinal campus, some kind of music program. In my quest, I made contact with the LHSA staff, LHS school staff, the school board, and the City of Lawndale staff, to include the Mayors office. I did this via e-mails and messages.

Some of my tactics and the manner in which I went about all this at times did not go over very well with so many, but my heart was deeply saddened that this kind of program did not exist their at Lawndale High so I blasted many for the lack of support. I was criticized in the process, bashed, and simply put, was told to stand down. That this would never happen.

Well, I would like to say to all who thought this was an un achievable milestone for our children, and simply a dream, LOOK OUT, here stands today our very proud Cardinal band members and musicians, and with a music program for future generations to come. My heart goes out to all of you, and especially to Mr. Hartwell for job well done.

Congratulations to all of you who participated in achieving a milestone that so many of us past Cardinal band alumni's wanted to see come true. You have our deepest love, our hearts and support.

I would like to share the e-mails from over 50 LHS Alumni's that actually wrote to me in support of this and their pledge of donations to all of you. I believe that all of you should see the love you had when all this started 2 years ago. I believe you should tell them all thank you and that you will make them all so very proud.

Thank you for making a dream come true!

I made a promise that if this came true, that I would have an LHS band banner made, and to fly down to see our young Cardinal children march on the streets once again. I am a man of my word. A beautiful band banner is currently being designed and will be delivered to Lawndale High School on or before 10-30-2007... Look for it !!!

I look forward to seeing all of you blowing up the streets of Lawndale once again!



Go Cardinal Spirit...Go Cardinal Band.....Make us Proud !!!
