Meet+the+Teacher



//My name is Mrs. Jody Tennyson and this is my eleventh year teaching Music Education in the Custer School District. Before teaching here I taught Third Grade at Little Wound School in Kyle, South Dakota. // //I //// graduated from Virginia Wesleyan College with a Bachelor's Degree in Interdivisional Studies with an emphasis in K-8 Elementary Education. I later received my K-12 Vocal/Instrumental Music Endorsement from Chadron State College. //

//My husband and I began our marriage living first in San Diego, California and then moving to Norfolk, Virginia while he served as a Rescue Swimmer/Aircrewman in the United States Navy. We both grew up in Custer and knew we wanted to return here someday. We now have three beautiful children. Our son Gage is eight, and Maya and Carter are our six year old twins. We enjoy living in the Black Hills once again, where we can enjoy the great outdoors with our family and friends. //

//Teaching Music brings great joy to my life and I am grateful I am able to work with the wonderful students, parents and fellow educators in the Custer School District. //
