What Do Teachers And
Principals Say About
Him:
Great
Performance:
-
"The
finest, most enriching program we have had at
this
school."
-
"In
fifteen years of teaching I have never
attended such a dynamic and worthwhile
performance!"

"This was a
once- in-a-lifetime opportunity to hear music of
this nature played with such
quality."
-
"An
unforgettable
performer!"
-
"The kids loved
him!"
Drug-Free
Message:
-
"Good
anti-drug, pro-living message. Rather than "Just
say no", Mr. Radford gives kids a glimpse of
choosing a worthwhile pursuit which makes drugs
(including alcohol)
unnecessary.
-
"Say
yes
to goals
and dreams, and there will be no room for
drugs. He is an example of this
truth."
-
"The way he combined his drug-free information and
related it to his musical talents would make anyone
believe drugs are not the
way."
Multi-Cultural/Educational:
-
"His skill
was amazing, and the Spanish culture he taught us
was priceless."
-
"His
performance exposed us to another country's culture
and the richness of their
music."
-
"Very culturally enlightening to students
who are so often sheltered from the world outside
our small town."
-
"Suddenly I thought I was back in
Spain!"
-
"Mr. Radford provided interesting
background and history about his
music."
-
"Most students learned more in this short
time than they would in 2-3 days of class
instruction."
-
"He is a dynamic
teacher."
Character Education/Role
Model:
-
"Mr. Radford
is not only a 'world-class artist,' he is a
'world-class person' with high standards and
ideals...the kind of person every teacher and
parent wants their children to
meet."
-
"I loved his
message 'You always have the power to choose to do
what is right!' This is great
stuff!"
-
"He explained how, as a teen-age
rock-&-roller, he discovered and learned
Flamenco, leaving the students with two memorable
guidelines: "Don't be afraid to change your mind,"
and "When you have a dream, don't listen to people
who say you can't do it!"
-
"Students gave him a standing
ovation!"
-
"I wish every
student in America could hear this
guy!"
