Introducing him as “a father, a musician, and teacher,” a recent USA Today TV feature paid moving tribute to Mr. Knappenberger, and highlighted the impact he is making in the community of Westfield, New York.
It is gratifying to know that a colleague (and ACDA member) is being acknowledged in such a tangible manner by students, alumni, and administrators, and now the Grammy Awards. Kent’s remarkable story should serve to remind us all of the nobility and value of our craft. Grammy or no, we are all winning each and every day on behalf of those we serve.
CONGRATULATIONS, KENT!
