Sadie Spencer Quote: "Sometimes the piece chosen for an adjudication doesn't highlight the best of what your ensemble has to offer. Choosing appropriate repertoire can have the power to not only enhance your ensemble, but to build camradery and skill along the way."Sadie Spencer (BS, Music Education, 2016) was recently interviewed by the National Association for Music Education's Teaching Music magazine about best practices for adjudication and assessment contest opportunities.

Spencer is the director of bands, orchestra, and general studies at New Town High School in Owings Mill, Maryland.
