Hello! 

My name is Francesca Velcich and I am SO excited for my 5th year as a D91 Hornet! I graduated from Illinois State University in 2020 with a Bachelors in Music Education (BME), and this summer I received my Orff Certification through Vandercook College of Music. I am a professional singer in the Chicagoland area and am a member of the Chicago Chamber Choir. I am also a commissioned arranger of Choral Music, specializing in pieces for Treble voices. When I am not teaching or singing, I love reading different genres of books, playing card games with cousins, and traveling to new places. 

I am so excited for a new year full of singing, dancing, playing, and creating! Keep watching for everything we accomplish this year :)

Go Hornets!
