Puster Music
Music with Ms. Tracy
I am so excited to be part of the Specials Team at Puster Elementary! This will be my 19th year teaching Elementary Music and I am grateful for the opportunity to be in Lovejoy ISD. In addition to working with our PreK - 4th grade students at Puster, I co-direct the Lovejoy Children's Choir with our talented PreK-5 music specialists and am the district's Coordinator of Elementary Fine Arts.
Before joining LISD, I taught Elementary Music for 9 years for Plano ISD at Gulledge, Haun, and Christie Elementary. I also had the pleasure of directing the Plano Children's Chorale for 8 years. I have a Bachelor's of Music from the University of Texas at Austin and am a Kodály Certified music specialist through the Kodály Institute of North Texas.

This will mark my 19th year as a soprano with the Dallas Symphony Chorus. It is important to me to continue to learn and grow as a musician to better help my students achieve their musical best. My hobbies include yoga, "slow" running, bike rides, and travel.
