Please give a warm welcome to the new orchestra director of the Melrose Public Schools, Zachary Sawyer!

This is Mr. Sawyer’s 6th year as an orchestra teacher. Before moving to Massachusetts, he taught orchestra in Minnesota in a town called Stillwater. He is originally from Michigan, and attended Michigan State University for his Bachelor’s degree and Northwestern University for his Master’s degree. His main instrument is the bass but is comfortable playing all of the string orchestra instruments.
