Our Music Teacher, 🎶 Bart Dooley, was presented with an “Arkansas Traveler Proclamation Award” from the Arkansas Secretary of State’s office, and an award from the Arkansas Music Educator’s Association for his 15 years of working with Arkansas music across the state. He is an amazing musician and educator! We are so honored to have Mr. Dooley as our music teacher here at Marguerite Vann.
