Hello! My name is Lauren Duflo, and I am the new band director for All Saints and St. Patrick’s this school year. I will be directing the 5th-8th grade bands, as well as teaching general music for our 3rd and 4th grade students. This is my 2nd year teaching music! Last year, I taught K-8 music and band at Excel Charter Academy here in Grand Rapids.
I graduated from Michigan State University in fall 2020 with a bachelors in Music Education. While there, I was a member of many music ensembles, but my favorite was the Spartan Marching Band. I played trumpet and Eb Cornet in the SMB for 4 years and loved every minute. I got to attend every home football game, travel to watch UofM and OSU play, and travel for bowl games. A few other things I enjoy are hiking, kayak fishing, and reading.
I am very excited to be joining the All Saints community. Teaching band is my biggest passion and I can’t wait to share that with our students. It’s going to be a great year!!
