Mr. Arots was an awesome teacher and made music fun for everybody. I was at Sallies from 91-95, where I played Saxophone. Between Jazz band, Wind Ensemble, and Marching Band, I spent a lot of time with him, both in the classroom and on the road. He was a huge influence and a really positive part of high school life for me. It was such a great time going on those trips for Marching Band competitions, they are some of my happiest memories of that time, and Mr. Arots is the one who made it all happen. Mr. Arots, you are very missed. I will never forget you.
