The Roots

I believe you must bring your whole self to the table if you want to thrive in today’s crazy world; your personality, your sense of humor, and most importantly, your heart. All of these elements brought me to start More than Music Education.

​

As Music Educators, we see many, if not all, of the students in a school.  We see them outside their regular element, and we truly get to watch them grow.  This project, for me, is about connecting with other educators from that perspective--how we can move forward, helping each other to utilize trauma-informed classroom management, Orff-based activities, anti-bias, anti-racial work, and of course, one of my weird quirks--organization!
