About Mrs. Grumbine:
I am so excited to be spending my 4th year at Lakeshore Middle School creating music and memories! I have the best job in the world and and fortunate to be spending it with such awesome kids at a place like LMS!
I've previously worked as a PreK-6th general music teacher, a MS and HS band and choir teacher, the Healing Harmonies community choir director, and a private voice instructor. I graduated from Western Michigan University - GO BRONCOS!
In my free time, I love to travel, try new foods and restaurants, spend time outdoors, cook, and garden. I am married to Mr. (Alex) Grumbine, have a cat named Chip, and last April, we welcomed Gibson Grumbine to our family!
