Hello SC Band students, families, and fans! My name is Elizabeth Janssen, and I am excited to be living and teaching in the Scott County Schools. A bit about me: I graduated from our very own SCHS in 2010 and went on to Kansas State University where I earned a bachelor's degree in Music Education. I graduated from KSU in 2014, and worked for two years in Ellsworth, KS as the 5th-12th grade band teacher. From Ellsworth, we moved back to Manhattan where I was the band teacher in the Rock Creek School District (between Manhattan and Wamego). When the opportunity presented itself for Mr. Janssen and I to return to Scott City to teach and live, we jumped on it! We loved our upbringing in this district and community, and were excited to get back here to teach, live, and be near family.
Our time is largely spent on school things - me with all things band and Mr. J with teaching and coaching tennis. In our free time, we enjoy traveling, gardening, making music, and discovering new tv shows and podcasts.
