June Dragon Thunder News
🌟 Senior Spotlight: Ronald J. Scott III (Trey) From his time at Turrentine Middle School and Alamance Virtual School, Trey has gravitated to music. He first picked up an instrument in the 4th grade when he made a BIG decision and chose the cello in Orchestra. Since then, he's consistently participated in All County Orchestra and recently expanded his talents to include percussion for All County Chorus. Looking ahead, Trey will attend UNC Greensboro, where he'll major in Popular Music and Technology, focusing on drums and bass guitar. Trey dreams of becoming a professional musician who travels the world sharing his love of music with audiences everywhere. We're excited to celebrate his achievements and wish him the best as he begins this next chapter!
