From the Assistant Principal: Introducing our new Music teacher!

Dallin families,

 

As you know, Mr. Dennis, our music teacher, took a teaching/administrative position that is closer to home allowing him to spend more time with his young family. We will miss him! 

 

Each ending is also a beginning and we have a wonderful teacher joining our school. Here is a little about her and her music career. Welcome, Ms. Haar!



 

Hello families! My name is Rachael Haar (she/her), and I am happy to be Dallin’s new K-5 Music Teacher. This is my 6th year teaching Elementary Music, and my 8th year teaching overall. I’ve previously taught in Lynn, Boston, and Vermont. I grew up in Connecticut, where I sang in choirs from as early as I can remember. I love the sense of community that music brings. Each week in class, we will become more musical through singing, moving, playing instruments, listening, creating, and more! Outside of school, I live with my husband and my cat, Mozzarella, and I enjoy being outside, doing yoga, and playing board games. Please feel free to reach out to me anytime via email; I am excited to get to know all of the students and families of Dallin!

Warmly,

Rachael Haar
