Welcome to my site! My name is Tara Hahn, and I am the Kindergarten through 2nd grade music educator here in the Spearfish School District.
This is my seventh year teaching in Spearfish, but I have previously taught K-5 music in Hot Springs, SD and K-1 music in the Douglas School District, SD. I grew up in south central South Dakota and then moved to Spearfish to attend college at Black Hills State University. I earned by B.S. in Music Education from BHSU in December 2010.
In May of 2019 I graduated with my Masters in Music Education from Temple University in Philadelphia, PA. I focused my studies on early childhood music education and curriculum development.
In May of 2018 my husband and I welcomed our first child into the world, Isla. In January of 2021 we expanded our family, and now have our sweet daughter Elsie with us too. We love being parents of future Spartans!
I love what I do and I am so proud to be a part of the Spearfish School District!
GO SPARTANS!
