Description

Anne Lokey taught at David Lipscomb Elementary School from 1965 until 1981. She was hired to teach 6th grade, but her music teaching skills were soon employed in preparing classes to perform small operas. These programs led to major productions created under her tutelage, broadening the artistic horizons of many young performers. Mrs. Lokey assisted in establishing the Orff-Schulwerk pedagogy in the elementary music department, teaching children to use manipulatives and to create beautiful accompaniment and movement with their voices. Students remember her passion for music, culture, and excellence, and her caring, personal attention that exemplified Christ in the classroom.
