Madison music teacher Christian Bonner brings Wisconsin poetry to life at Kennedy Elementary

This spring, Kennedy Elementary School music teacher Christian Bonner became one of six educators in the state to win a $1,000 grant to study original art by Wisconsin artists.

Bonner is also a clarinet player pursuing his second master’s degree from UW-Madison to get his principal’s license. He said exploring unique music relevant to his young students is key to getting them excited about it.
