My name is Mrs. Eggleston, and I have been Washington School's music specialist for 28 years. My husband is a Professor of Music at Illinois Wesleyan University. We have two daughters and one son-in-law who all live in Texas: Sarah, who teaches 2nd grade; Elizabeth, a professional violinist, and Geoff, who is a middle school band director. Our granddaughter, Natalie Elizabeth, turned one year old this summer.

MUSIC MISSION STATEMENT

My mission is not only to teach children about music, but also to help children develop a love and appreciation of music. We sing, move, play instruments, create and perform. We learn about instruments, the music of great composers, and about the tools that we need to become musicians ourselves.
