POSITION SUMMARY

Kidznotes is seeking an enthusiastic and experienced Percussion Teaching Artist (TA) to teach elementary through high school students during the 2026–2027 school year.

Percussion – Trailblazers: Wednesdays, 6:30-7:30 pm

This intermediate-level percussion sectional is designed for middle and high school students who are ready to refine their instrumental technique, musicianship, ensemble skills, and artistic expression.
