Musician of the Month
:: Strings :: Band :: Keyboard
Mrs. Mary Lubaroff is an outstanding strings teacher in the Lee's Summit R-7 District. Her husband, Dr. Scott Lubaroff, is the Director of Bands at the University of Central Missouri.Students have the opportunity to study stringed instruments in grades fifth and sixth grades, under the direction of Mrs. Lubaroff.  Strings students are held to high standards of musicianship and citizenship, as they explore tone production, music reading, and ensemble performance. Students are also challenged to critically listen as they develop intonation and coordination.

Our district's instrumental programs receive the highest honors - primarily due to the solid foundation achieved in the elementary setting.

The centerpiece of Highland Park's general music program is the Yamaha "Music In Education" Keyboard Lab, a technology driven program, supplemented with Orff instruction, internet activities, technology assisted learning software, whiteboard technology, & vocal music. When these instructional components are effectively combined, they provide a well-balanced, musical experience for students in kindergarten through sixth grade.
