General/Vocal Music - Jill Hasker


Welcome to the music program of the Richfield School District!

I extend my sincerest thanks for your interest in and support of our program, which is designed to offer a wide variety of music experiences to each of our students, 5K-8th grade.

  • Students in our general music classes experience fun, challenging activities in singing, movement, playing, listening, creating, and analyzing music of varied musical styles. Students also make strong connections to other areas of learning and exercise their literacy skills in the music classroom.

  • Students who elect to participate in the Middle School Chorus further their study of music by focusing in on their vocal skills through large group and sectional rehearsals. Together, we study, practice, and perform music of many origins and styles while enhancing our performance skills in an academic and social setting.

  • Our district is lucky to have a quality instrumental program (offered to 4th-8th grades) in addition to the music services I provide. Please check out Mr. James Matheson's webpage for more information about the Richfield Bands.

There are endless roles that music may play in a person’s life, and there is a special role out there for each student I encounter in my music classroom. As the Richfield School District's general/vocal music teacher, it is my duty to help our students discover the function music will play for them. By fostering curious minds, exposing diverse quality musical experiences, maintaining an enjoyable learning environment, and creating lasting memories, I help guide our students through this exploration.
