Family & Community Engagement Hornet Spotlight:
Meet our new K-12 Music Teacher, Ms. Rund! 🎶
Ms. Rund is a graduate from Frostburg State University in Frostburg, MD. She loves music and is excited to share that with her students! 💜
When asked what inspired her to be a teacher, she said, “It has to be my teachers growing up; they were who asked me questions, encouraged my curiosity, quenched my thirst for knowledge, and who inspired me to be a better human every day. I also have incredible parents, my very first teachers, who constantly challenged me to be better than the day before, taught me to never be satisfied with mediocrity, and encouraged me to pursue any and everything that piqued my interest.”
We asked Ms. Rund what her favorite subject was when she was in school and she said:
“I know I am supposed to say music or band, but those were never “subjects” for me; they were like coming home and the comfort places in my day. My favorite subject other than those had to be english. This is where I was challenged the most, where my creativity flourished, and where I could most easily connect my passion for music to daily tasks.”
Her interests include Music Psychology, Neurobiology, and Music History. She has two sassy, cuddly, rambunctious kitties named Oscar and Milo.
She is eager to meet all of our students and their families at Open House on August 11th and is super excited to be a member of our #OarkHornetFamily 🐝💜
Please help us welcome her to the family! 😄
