Meet the Music Teacher

My name is Kerry Baxter Sessler. I have been teaching choral, general and instrumental music at St Pius X School since 2011.  

I grew up in a family full of musicians, and music has always been a big part of my life. I began playing the piano in Kindergarten and I began playing organ, trumpet and percussion in middle school. I earned my Bachelor's degree in Music Education from SUNY Fredonia, and my Master's degree from The College of Saint Rose. 

In music class, I love singing, dancing, playing instruments and musical games. I am always looking for a new instrument to try. Bagpipes, anyone? Boomwhackers?

Outside of school, you can find me hiking, biking, baking, swimming or swinging from the monkey bars with my two kids!
