Mr. Burnside

I absolutely love working with students and helping them learn, grow, and achieve more than they thought they could. Music is the perfect vehicle for teaching valuable life skills and lessons, in addition to providing a unique creative outlet that someone can be involved in their entire life. What I love most about Jordan band students are their passion, drive, and energy that they bring to my classroom. They are curious, fun-loving, and love being a part of the Jordan Band community.

Ms. Enstad

I am so excited to be directing choirs at Jordan High School! I love helping students unlock the mysteries and intrinsic beauty of their voices, as well as giving them tools to feel confident in public performance. And there is nothing quite like the community built when people sing and share together! I have been lucky to work with students at all levels - from preschool through college and beyond. Most of my teaching and conducting has been in Minnesota at The Blake School, Minnetonka Schools, Angelica Cantanti Youth Choirs, and The University of St. Thomas. Jordan is a special community with a strong legacy of music, and I’m grateful to be part of it.
