As the school year begins, new teachers have been employed at Rose Hill High School. 

Nate Hills is the new head band director at Rose Hill High School. He has taught music for eight years. Before he came to Rose Hill, he was a band director at Oxford Jr./Sr. High School in south central Kansas. 

“This has been an unusual year so far, but it is going well,” said Hills. 

Christopher Kurt is the new choir director at Rose Hill High School. He has taught music for seven years and before he came to Rose Hill, he taught at Aldo Leopold Middle School in Burlington, and Liberty Memorial Central Middle School in Lawrence. 

“My favorite part of my job is watching students develop throughout the year,” Kurt said. “And open themselves up to learning through music.”
