Kenny Goodson of Hughes Springs is a master of today’s intersection between original musical composition, and high-tech software which helps to facilitate the conversion of musical ideas to published scores.  In 1995, Goodson initiated MADD Creations which provides original and adapted scores for marching bands throughout the state.

The ��«����Ƶ Foundation has more than 300 scholarships available for the 2022-2023 academic year. The scholarships are not directly tied to FAFSA eligibility, so you may receive a scholarship even if you don’t qualify for PELL grants. What’s the catch? You have to apply!

Ruben Guerrero, an ��«����Ƶ Honors Scholar, is the winner of a $50 Tribute Award for his achievements with acting and debating last fall. 

Guerrero maintains two roles in the upcoming Webb/Honors film on Carroll Shelby to be premiered this 25 March at the Whatley Auditorium.  In one of the most engaging scenes of the film, he plays Shelby patron, Roy Cherryhomes, with a southern accent.  According to the book, Carroll Shelby byRinsey Mills, Cherryhomes helped make Shelby a great racer, but was also a very divisive figure in the early Dallas racing circles.  In the scene, based on the book, Cherryhomes gets into a fight over his assumed right to sit on a dishwasher.  Guerrero explores ethnic nuances as well with his second character, Dr. Alfredo Trento, the California surgeon who gave Shelby his second heart.  Guerrero’s accent and hand motions again provide the verisimilitude which makes the scene stand out.
