Alfredo Hernandez, a native Hispanic from Brooklyn, has been awarded the 2023 Music Teacher of the Year award by Education Through Music (ETM).
All Hallows High School did not have a music teacher for several decades until they partnered with ETM. Mr. Hernandez joined the school in 2021 and quickly built a comprehensive music program impacting all students. Mr. Hernandez serves as Professor of Music Technology at All Hallows and as Director of the All Hallows Modern Band. Through the music programs he has created, Mr. Hernandez has taught students who had never played an instrument; and he has inspired them to discover their musical talents.
