Local theatrical celebrity, Holly Keenan, got her start as a bug hiding in the back row on stage at the Concord Community Music School. Seven years later, she's singing, acting and dancing to sellout crowds. And despite her success, she remains a kind and humble spirit who keeps it all in perspective. Special guest host, Jill Dater, joins us for episode 4.

This is a story about math in action. Listen to hear how Concord High School student Nate Currier has coupled his passion for hockey and his well-developed number sense into gainful employment with a semi-pro hockey team...AND earns ELO high school credit along the way.

Still waters run deep. And that is certainly true for our special guest on episode 2 of RiZing Tide. Shadrach Harerimana was recommended to be interviewed after he and his friends unleashed a torrent of drumming talent on Concord High School during a pep rally earlier this year.

Shad shares stories of his early years at Mill Brook and Broken Ground, his move to a private school and his return to public education when we came to Concord High as a 9th grader. A life altering trip to his family's homeland this past summer, gave Shad a perspective and wisdom beyond his years. Enjoy hearing about Shad's amazing story and outlook on life.

This is our pilot episode, and we kick off with an amazing young lady. Kelly Akimana claims she was nothing but trouble in elementary school. In middle school she discovered an interest that blossomed into a special gift. Now she's a thriving entrepreneur. Kelly has a fantastic story to tell.
