New Ulm High Schools Fine Arts Aide is practicing fast and slow beats with scarves. The high school has offered many classes and programs to assist special needs students but has never provided a musical arts program. “This is the first time this class has been offered, so we are trying new things and seeing where each of the students is at. Beats are a big part of music; right now, we are working on fast and slow beats,” Band teacher Ms. Keister said. (Brooke Hanson )
