Junior High and High School

In one-hour class sessions or two-hour combined class sessions, Tracy taught her “essay into lyric and then into a musical setting” approach.The songs these young people composed reflected their lives, their struggles, their hopes and dreams…So inspiring!

Integrated Arts/Special School Projects 

In April of 2013, Tracy was hired by the Iditarod School District to help students write four songs for an Integrated Arts project headed up by Lydia Ossorgin, phenomenal educator from the Atheneum School in Anchorage, AK. Students from four villages (off the road system in interior Alaska) were to take a bit of local history and write and perform an original musical. All classes and rehearsals (save one) were done by video conference. The students wrote the play, created the stage, scenery, props and costumes and flew to four villages in 5 days for a fantastic frenzy of performances. The video (in 4 scenes) Miska and The First Airplane can now be viewed HERE

These students have been nominated for the Alaska Spirit of Youth Award!
