  • Melissa Salguero - Episode 39 - Chaotic Harmony Podcast
    In this episode, we talk with Melissa Salguero, an incredible music educator at P.S.48 Joseph R. Drake Elementary School in the South Bronx.
    She has built the music program from the ground up and has raised over $200,000 for her music program. Salguero was honored as the Lincoln Center Arts Teacher of the Year in 2013. In 2014, after P.S. 48 suffered a break-in, Salguero was invited to represent the school on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show." She was named the Grammy Music Educator Award Recipient in 2018.
    We speak with Melissa about bringing respect into the classroom, creating a safe learning environment, and bearing the courage to teach beyond the standards to meet the students where they're at—even (and perhaps especially) when that means addressing hard topics.
