FEMEA Districts 2 & 6 Elections
Online Voting January 7 - 10, 2020
Meet the Candidates for Districts 2 and 6 Chairs
District Chair
Dorothy Yorty, District 2
I understand how rewarding and challenging it can be as an elementary music teacher. I have a desire to help music teachers as they journey through their passion/career as a music teacher. I attended a SW Fl Orff Workshop and found the information invaluable. This ignited my desire to grow as a music educator. This fire didn't stop at growing as a teacher myself, it ignited the desire to be a part of the leadership to help other music teachers learn how to become better teachers. I have served on SW Fl Orff Board for several years and I've loved every second. I am continuing to grow in my desire to help others realize their dreams as a music educator.
I enjoy supporting FGCU with mentoring their students. Planting seeds for future classrooms, teachers, and students I feel is critical. My attitude is, how can I help others as we walk this path of teaching music together?
By serving FEMEA I will continue to grow and help others. I feel I am already embracing the FEMEA mission. This mission is truly a part of who I am. I would feel honored to be a part of supporting music educators in order to provide a high quality, comprehensive music education for all children. There is nothing like observing a teacher who has just realized that by teaching his/her students, they have changed their student's world. There is nothing like observing our students as they achieve their musical/personal goals with that feeling of success. I hope all of you will allow me the opportunity to serve as the District Chair for FEMEA District 2.
