When Andrea Peterson landed her first teaching job, she faced the daunting task of creating a music program with almost no money for equipment or supplies in a climate where standards-based learning was the focus and music just provided a break for students and teachers.
For her drive and creativity in overcoming
those challenges, she’s been named national teacher of the year.
Principal Waynes Kettler said he’s worked
with many outstanding teachers in his 22 years as an educator, but Peterson is
“just that one step above anybody I’ve ever worked with before.”
Kettler and others at Monte Cristo Elementary
School talk about the ways she has introduced the learning from other
classrooms into her music program and her creativity in working around things
such as the lack of money for new music.
When students were reading S.E.Hinton’s
novel The Outsiders in their regular classroom, Peterson helped them write a
30-minute play with scenes from the book.Then
they chose three Broadway tunes that focused on race, equality and social
justice, the themes of the book.Peterson composed two other
songs herself after classroom discussions about the play and the book.
The honor means a lot to residents of Granite
Foils.It’s inspiring to know that
people from small towns even win national honors.
As national teacher of the year, Peterson
will spend the more years outside the classroom, as a national and
international spokeswoman for education.
Not surprisingly, she is a big believer in
the value of arts education. She said it’s essential for schools to offer
classes such as art or music and physical education because for some kids one
of those subjects is the only thing that attracts them to come back to school
day after day.
