KET Announces Equity Statement... Music for All!
RGV Region Representative
Ignacio "Tony" Lopez
My name is Ignacio "Tony" Lopez. I am a product of the Rio Grande Valley - born and raised. I received my BA in Music Education from the University of Texas-Pan American (now UTRGV). I have been teaching for 16 years. Nine of those years were spent as a high school band/mariachi director. But I saw the light and found where I truly belong. I am going into my eighth year of teaching at Hendricks Elementary in McAllen, and I have loved every minute. I am thankful that the opportunity to become Kodaly certified became a reality in the RGV as I am now in my third level, which unfortunately due to Covid, I did not get to finish. But I have partaken of the Kool-Aid so to speak and firmly believe in the effectiveness of the Kodaly process. I am honored to serve as your KET Souther/RGV (not sure the exact wording) Representative.find it, it doesn’t exist. Clearly list and describe the services you offer.
