Mrs. Smoley
Welcome! My name is Mrs. Smoley and I teach K-2 music at Bonner Elementary. This is my 20th year teaching in Stewartville. I have a Bachelor of Music from the University of North Dakota, a Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education from the University of North Dakota, and a Master of Arts in Music Education from Adams State University. My goal is to help students become tuneful, beatful, and artful.
