Becca Cassel is the Teacher of the Month for November. This is her ninth year working as a music instructor.

When asked why she became a music teacher Cassel said, “I just love music and I like the ensemble and the group setting, so the way you do that all the time is by becoming a music teacher.” To her, the best part of teaching music is seeing growth in the students she’s helping, “that whole process of seeing them get better and working towards that performance goal.”

Cassel loves to encourage her students as they tackle hard projects such as the musicals, choir performances, and All-State. Cassel says that it’s an honor to be a teacher, helping students and seeing recognition for the work and dedication it takes to run a music room.
