Gretchen Thompson

Mrs. Gretchen Thompson's most recent experiences involve teaching intermediate and secondary instrumental, theater, and vocal music courses. She is excited and passionate about helping students build a foundation of musical and theatrical skills, knowledge, technique, and experiences. Mrs. Thompson has also enjoyed hosting elementary music camp activities and summer school opportunities for many years in Holton. She is practiced at encouraging those of all abilities to give music a chance and diversifies her activities for students of all types of strengths and abilities. She enjoys the energy, enthusiasm, and challenges students of all ages and abilities bring to the classroom and excitedly anticipates finding more of her joy through music education at a fundamental, intermediate, and advanced level in a district with the resources and support that Hart clearly offers its staff, students, and community.
