I teach kindergarten through sixth grade general music and choir in a city in Central New York. The population is very diverse and has many ethnicities, languages and religions represented. I teach at two schools with Hughes being my home school. The invite district falls into the low income bracket and thankfully students receive free school meals! The students are wide eyed and willing to learn with a kind and invested teacher. They are excited to do projects and instruments in class and see a big value in learning modern band instruments as well as music writing.
