Amy Stout

Special Areas
Music Teacher

Amy Stout received her Bachelor of Music in Music Education from the University of North Carolina Greensboro, and she is currently working on receiving her Master of Divinity in Worship Leadership at the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. She has a variety of experiences in music ministry, from worship keys player and choir coordinator/director, to youth minister. She loves working with students to put on performances such as Christmas programs and Spring Productions. She enjoys spending time with her husband, playing keys for her church, and drinking coffee and cooking.

“You don't have to be ‘gifted’ or ‘talented’ to enjoy music. It is about expressing yourself, making fun sounds, and experiencing beauty.”

Q & A with Mrs. Stout

Highlight of the Year:

Christmas program! It is a lot of work but I love the music of Christmas and enjoy sharing that with our students and their families.

Passion:

I am passionate about experiencing music in many different ways. We can experience music hands on through singing, playing instruments or games, movement, and creating our own music. We also can experience music through listening, describing, watching, and even reading about it.

Philosophy:

I believe that music is for everyone and that each student has the ability to be successful in music class.

Favorite part of teaching:

I love sharing my passion for music with my students and watching them experience new things as well as develop into musicians or music lovers on their own.

Favorite teaching memory:

My final concert at the high school I taught at in NC. We ended with a medley from Les Miserables and all 4 of my choirs performed together on stage. It was magical!

My hope for my students:

My hope is that my students learn that music connects them to the world, other people, and other cultures. You don’t have to be “gifted” or “talented” to enjoy music. It is about expressing yourself, making fun sounds, and experiencing beauty.

Fun fact:

My husband and I will be celebrating our anniversary this October. We have 3 fur babies: Daisy the Bloodhound, Bo the English Shepherd, and Casper the black cat. I play keys at my church, love coffee and cooking, and enjoy horseback riding.

Our Teachers Go Above and Beyond

"It is a wonderful feeling knowing that the faculty and staff of St. Martha want your child to succeed just as much as you do as their parent.

The Drive…It’s Worth It!

"We drive over 30 minutes each way to get to St. Martha - and it's worth it! We grateful to have found a community of loving, courageous, helpful, kind, genuine people to help us raise our babies - and we're not going anywhere. After 3 years of preschool and with our oldest now in Kindergarten - we know we're where we belong.
A deciding factor and one of the greatest benefits to our family is that SMS offers after school care AND summer care - that are run by SMS staff. My kiddo is in the same place, with people she knows, all year and its priceless!"

No Worries At All!

"My daughter became a Shamrock in 7th grade, and my biggest worry as a parent was if she would feel like part of the school community. I shouldn’t have worried AT ALL. She has said multiple times that the students have been so wonderfully welcoming to her that she feels like she’s been at St. Martha since kindergarten. It’s been an amazing transition for her and we are so thankful for everyone who’s been part of her school experience at St. Martha - her new friends, teachers, school staff, and the St. Martha families. It’s never too late to find your perfect school!"
