Hi! I'm Mrs. Monarch, your music teacher! We are going to have a blast making music together this year! This is my second year at Brantner, but my fourth in SD27J. I have a bachelor's degree in music education from the University of Michigan as well as a master's degree in music from Colorado State University. This is my 12th year teaching overall.
My husband is also a music teacher! He teaches high school band in the Cherry Creek School District. I love to read, shop, kickbox, drink coffee, and hang out with my husband. The oboe is my main instrument, but I also love to sing and dance, especially with my students!
