This year's director, Sarah M. Altman-Kopko, received her Master of Music in Vocal Performance and Master of Arts in Vocal Pedagogy from The Ohio State University in 2009. 

Prior to joining SSBVM, she studied and performed nationally and internationally, and taught voice and pedagogy at Millersville University and York College of Pennsylvania. 

She currently is an active member of the National Association of Teachers of Singing, Allegheny Mountain Chapter, and is thrilled to have the opportunity to work with your children this year. 

This year's Assistant Director, Stephanie Hoffacer, has been involved with theater since high school through performing, singing, and acting. 

She was also a cheerleader throughout high school and college and became a high school cheerleading coach for 2 years at a local high school. 

After starting to teach Pre-K at SSBVM in 2014, she was asked to choreograph for the theater program. This was new territory for her and she fell in love with the theater program! 

Mrs. Hoffacker is excited for her 10th year working with the theater program as choreographer, working with Mrs. A and all of the wonderfully talented students at SSBVM!
