Hi! My name is Alexis Newman and I am excited to be joining Eureka Springs Schools as a music teacher and choir director! I grew up in Fort Smith, Arkansas and attended college at the University of Arkansas. While at the University of Arkansas, I participated in many music ensembles including the Razorback Marching band (as a piccolo player and a majorette), Inspirational Chorale, Women’s Chorus, Wind Symphony, and Latin Music Ensemble. I graduated with a Bachelor of Music with high distinction in May of 2021 after completing internships at Jannie Darr Elementary in Rogers and Springdale High School.
As a music educator, I aim to provide students with joyful musical experiences each day. In my class students will be introduced to tools that will allow them to become life-long music makers in the genre of their interest while also being exposed to repertoire essential in any comprehensive music education. I believe that the best way to learn about music is by making music through play and exploration.
The town of Hindsville is where I now call home. My free time is normal spent with my fiancé and my puppy. I enjoy watching movies, especially Audrey Hepburn movies. I like to express my creativity by baking and decorating cakes. I do a lot of traveling in the summer and visited San Francisco, Napa Valley, Lake Tahoe, Reno, and Las Vegas, and Marco Island just this past summer.
We are excited to announce that Eureka Springs School now has an app. Keep up with district and/or building updates, events, deadlines, etc. Look for this logo and check it out!
