Hello!
My name is Gina Hoffman. I will be your Music Teacher this year at Frey. I am pleased to welcome all of our Frey families to our new school year. This year promises to be filled with many opportunities for learning and growth. I want each and every one of you to know that I am very excited to be sharing the gift of Music with you. In Music Class, we will have much fun while we sing, play, create and move to music. Everyone is musical! We are born musical and are surrounded by sounds, rhythms and patterns everyday!! Together we will explore our musical world and participate in a variety of enriching and engaging activities. Your child's teacher will share the Special's rotation so that you will know what day your child has Music. Please extend Music into your home by asking your child what he/she did in Music Class and enjoy Music as a family by attending local concerts, festivals and theater productions.
Parents can be assured that your child is receiving the very best in a musical education at Frey. According to a nationwide survey measuring curricular and programmatic criteria by the NAMM Foundation and the American Music Conference, the Cobb County School District is among the 100 Best Communities for Music Education in America!! We are most fortunate to live in a vibrant Atlanta metropolitan Arts community filled with professional family oriented programming, much of which is free and open to the public. Studies show that students who have been exposed to a strong Arts program in school consistantly show strong academic standing throughout their educational years. It is a privilage to teach in a district where the Arts are so supported in enriching the lives of our students and their families.
LOVE TO SING? Join the Frey Flames Honors Chorus!! Details coming soon to all interested 4th and 5th Graders! The Frey FLames Chorus meets every Wednesday after school froom 2:15 to 3:15 starting September 14th in the Music Room.
I hope you enjoy coming to Music as much as I love teaching it!! I look forward to seeing you soon!
Musically yours,
Ms. Gina Hoffman
