Welcome, Carnahan students and families!

My name is Lindsey Swaney, and I am the music teacher here at Carnahan STEAM Middle School. I have been teaching since 2019 and I’ve been a singer since I could talk. I played clarinet through my sophomore year of college. I received my bachelor’s degree in vocal music education from Webster University, and I am looking forward to pursuing my master’s degree.

Building a safe, innovative classroom where all students are represented is what drives and inspires me. I believe that fresh perspectives and trying new techniques help students evolve and grow. My goal is to build a classroom with challenging academics that lead students to become stronger musicians as they serve the world around them. Music is such a personal thing, and I firmly believe that it makes the world a better place.

I am so excited to see what the year brings, and I can’t wait to meet you!
