It was a great 1st day back with our incredible @Alpharetta_ES staff!

So proud of my sweet intern, Miss Kendall- she passed her music therapy board certification exam today! 🥹 She studied her heart out and put so much dedication and passion into her internship! Big things are coming your way Miss Kendall- Congratulations 🎉

A little rain couldn’t stop our #MusicTherapists from singing 🎤and dancing 💃🏻their way through today’s @SOGAchampions event @RiverwoodICS! We love to see students from @FultonCoSchools show off their skills in track and field events!

SER-AMTA 23 is a wrap! I presented alongside great friends & colleagues, I caught up w/ friends old & new, and I was reminded of the power of music. This is important work that touches many and I am so thankful for the opportunity to impact others. @koperniak @FultonCoSchools

If you’re here, it’s likely you know what #MusicTherapy is, but let’s talk about goal areas that we focus on as part of our work in @FultonCoSchools. #TheMoreYouKnow #fcsmusic @koperniak @aweldonsMT

@MusicForKiddos Shy Little Monster is one of my personal favorites! The flippity-flappety, zippity-zappety gets me every time- BOO! 🦞🎃

We had so much fun making music with @FultonCoSchools music educators, and with Sandy Lantz & Gretchen Wahlberg today! Singing 🎤, dancing🕺🏼, and laughing 😂 always makes for a fun PD! Thank you @koperniak & FAST team for organizing a great day of learning!

Our #MusicTherapists started the day with music, leading all of #fcsmusic educators in a beautiful song about the power of music, “Bound Together.” We feel so lucky to be a part of the @FultonCoSchools phenomenal and talented music department! @koperniak
