Spencer, MA - Exciting news from the David Prouty High School Music Department... On Saturday, November 15th, four amazing music students auditioned for Central Districts, an opportunity for students to continue their music journey outside the school with other Central District schools. They have been practicing and working hard with fellow music teachers for months. The following musicians of David Prouty auditioned:
Paige Fritze, Alto Saxophone
Jackson Rutkiewicz, Vocal
Bradyn LaFountain, Vocal
James Liam Hanlan, Percussion
Bradyn LaFountain and Jackson Rutkiewicz both made Central Districts and will be performing in a concert in January 2026. Jackson received an All-State recommendation, which means he will audition again and have the opportunity to perform at the All-State Music Festival Concert in Boston in March 2026.
David Prouty HS Music Department Lead, Kelsey Forfa, stated, " I am beyond proud of all four of these musicians for their dedication and love of the program at David Prouty. They always perform their hearts out, and as a director, I couldn't ask for more!"
Superintendent of Schools, Paul Haughey, added, "Thanks to the continued investment by our local community, parents, families and business leaders as well as the School Committee, Mrs. Forfa and her team of professionals have been able to grow the music program up and down the district to be a source of great pride for everyone who has a deep and heartfelt appreciation for music and the arts... I could not be prouder of our music program district-wide, and these high school musicians have earned the opportunity to perform at Central Districts! Many congratulations to Paige, Jackson, Brayden, James, and everyone who helped them achieve these exceptional levels of performance... On behalf of all of us in the Spencer, East Brookfield Regional School District, let me be one of the first to say: job well done! We are so very proud of you - one and all!!"
