    • Why I want to be at West Ridge:

  • I feel so fortunate to be a part of such a fantastic group of educators. The teachers at West Ridge have a positive energy and love of teaching that is going to create a wonderful learning environment for students. I am excited to have a class where students can express themselves though music and then have the opportunity to give back to the community in performance. I want kids to be actively engaged in music through playing instruments, singing, composting, listening, moving, and describing. I am so excited about starting this music program and sharing my love for music with your children.
