She is committed to making sure every student has the opportunity to enjoy the benefits of an excellent performing arts program. That is just one reason why Oquirrh Hills Middle School Principal Donna Hunter is being recognized as this year’s “Outstanding Administrator” by the Utah Music Educators Association. Mrs. Hunter received the award over the weekend. It is given to a public school administrator who demonstrates commitment and support of music education in schools.
Mrs. Hunter says as a child she had the opportunity to take accordion, violin and piano lessons, even enjoyed participating in 8th grade Girls’ Glee, experiences she remembers well. Mrs. Hunter says in order for teachers to do their best in the classroom, they must receive support from administrators.
Congratulations, Mrs. Hunter, on this well-deserved award and recognition.
Thanks to Oquirrh Hills Middle School music teachers Eric Perkins, Sarah Arnesen and Ellen Battenfield for nominating your amazing principal for this prestigious award.
