Sometimes Herron students have to break out their ukeleles, harmonicas, boaters, and saddle-shoes to exercise their "inner nerds."

Herron students gather to perform the revered ritual known as Orthodontic Serenade, a traditional ceremony designed to celebrate the joy of overnight retainers. This month's honoree, Becky Lee Higginbotham (center), joins in the musical festivities with her ukelele as she is unable to actually open her mouth to sing. (Editor's note: The student at the far left, Maryellen Shtup, is only pretending to be playing the harmonica. There were none left by the time she arrived, late as usual.)

Far out guys and dolls!  I think this could be the start of something keen in schools everywhere...  They could call this music class and cats all over can learn to read and play music!
