Mrs. Meter grew up in Lincoln and is married to Mr. Meter, math teacher at East High School. They have twin daughters, Elena and Allie. Mrs. Meter has a big extended family, many of whom live in town.
Mrs. Meter fell in love with music at an early age. Sharing her love of music quickly became a passion, whether she's making the music or talking about music. Her philosophy on teaching music is simply to create awareness and opportunity to explore what music can provide to your student- whether it's a creative outlet, a method of expression, or to develop a well-rounded and cultured student.
