WATSONVILLE, CA — Great teachers matter. In Watsonville, we’re fortunate to have teachers like Jesse Rose Lazar.

This submission comes from Bonnie Dankert, who nominated Jesse Rose Lazar, of Watsonville:

She teaches very young students how to appreciate music and to work collaboratively to create music. This endeavor means she is teaching students how to play a variety of instruments and use their voices while learning a diverse set of compositions.

What's one thing you want everyone to know about the teacher?

She started out as an itinerant teacher without her own classroom. She lived like a musical gypsy while trying to enrich the lives of a diverse population of students.
