Ms. Kelsey's passion for music grew as she did. She had beloved music teachers throughout her schooling and was inspired to bring the same kind of love and passion for music to her future students. Ms. Kelsey graduated Hofstra University in Long Island with a Bachelors of Science in Music Education. Throughout her undergraduate years, she learned how to build and create fun, inclusive, engaging, and immersive musical experiences. Ms. Kelsey is currently finishing her Master's degree at Columbia University's Teachers College where she will receive her Master of Arts in Music and Music Education. Ms. Kelsey is looking forward to a musical year with her students in general music and chorus from grades fourth through twelfth.
