Music to Our Ears: Leading the Next Generation of Voices
Snoqualmie Elementary School music teacher Rachel O’Neill is taking her passion for music education to a statewide stage.
In this episode of The Valley Cast, we sit down with Rachel to talk about her selection as conductor of the 2027 WMEA Junior All-State Youth Choir, where she will lead approximately 150 fifth- and sixth-grade singers from across Washington this February in Yakima.
Rachel shares what the honor means to her, how she approaches working with young musicians and the impact music can have on students far beyond the classroom. We also talk about the strength of music education in the Snoqualmie Valley School District and what she hopes to bring back to her own students from this experience.
