Fifth graders at Peres Elementary School sing a rendition of the classic 50 states song during the winter concert Thursday afternoon. Students at Peres have general music education once a week thanks to Education Through Music East Bay, a program that provides music education to underprivileged students who would otherwise not get the opportunity. The program is in four Richmond schools. (Brittany Patterson/Richmond Confidential)
