Music OLD PAGE
Hello! My name is Karen LeMense, and I am excited to be your new music teacher for grades PK-5!
I'm originally from Cedar Rapids, Iowa, and graduated from the Universtiy of Iowa (Go Hawkeyes!). I've taught for the Archdiocese of Omaha for over 20 years and play for Masses regularly on weekends at the St. Mary (Bellevue) and St. Pius X parishes. I continue to study music at UNO.
My husband Todd is a curriculum specialist and head swim coach for Omaha South High School. We have one daughter, Regina, who has begun her freshman year at the College of St. Mary.
Thank you for the warm welcome I have received! What a wonderful parish community and school you have!
Please feel free to contact me by email or telephone (492-2111) if you have any questions or concerns about your child's progress in music class.
