We love celebrating our incredible music educators! 🎶 We are so fortunate to have these seven educators, along with many others, as part of the FM Symphony. Their impact reaches far beyond the stage.

Thank you again to our amazing music educators, and cheers to the end of another wonderful school year and symphony season! 🎉

Performances don’t stop at school for our music educators. Many teachers are active performers in the region as well.! Seven West Fargo educators are members of the Fargo-Moorhead Symphony Orchestra, which recently finished its 2025-2026 season with a concert featuring works by Italian composer Giacomo Puccini!
