Hi! I’m Lindsay Smith, and I’m the Music Specialist at Rolesville Elementary School. I teach all of our students Kindergarten - 5th Grade, and I lead the RES Chorus. The best part of my day is making music with my students. I love to see their faces light up while they’re playing and singing together, and the pride they feel when they do something that was challenging at first. 

I grew up outside of Buffalo, in Clarence, NY. I have always loved music, singing all the time and participating in every performing group I could throughout middle school and high school. I received my Bachelor of Music in Music Education from Westminster College in Pennsylvania, in May of 2007. I then began my teaching career in Hoke County, NC. In 2013 I joined the staff at Rolesville Elementary School in 2013 and finished my master’s degree in Music Education in May the same year. 

I love being a part of the RES staff, and I am especially proud of the Specialist team for our dedication to our students. We are always looking for ways to improve learning in our subject areas, and the ways we can collaborate, both with each other and with grade level teams.

My husband, Justin, and I live in North Raleigh with our dog, Gracie.In my spare time I love reading, playing video and board games, baking, going to the movies, bird watching, and spending time outside in my garden.
