Elementary Band

Thank you for visiting the MTSD Elementary Band website!  You can access information regarding our beginning band program and how to register for band by following the Join the Band page at the top.  Current band students will find information on the Resources page. 

As the Director of Beginning Bands for the Mequon-Thiensville School District, I have the rewarding opportunity of taking our students from their very first sounds on an instrument, and shaping them into young musicians.  I enjoy working with beginning level students where I can set them up for future success on their musical instrument by establishing good habits with them from the start. 

My educational background includes a Bachelor's Degree in Music Education from the University of Wisconsin - Madison where I studied french horn with Dan Grabois. 

I work with all of the 4th and 5th grade beginning band students at Donges Bay, Oriole Lane, and Wilson Elementary Schools in full band rehearsals and small group lessons.
