Our Teachers

This will be Miss Christina’s first year of teaching with Miss Polly’s Music Class, but she is no stranger to teaching music to little ones.  For 7 years, she taught music to children in a small group setting and also taught weekly in an early education public school program for two years.  After taking a year off from teaching, she is excited to hear that Miss Polly’s Music Class is expanding to the Indianapolis area and is pleased to be a part of the team.

Miss Christina has a Bachelor of Science in Vocal Performance and Theatre from Indiana University.  While there, she performed in many productions on campus and was a member of the Singing Hoosiers. 

Miss Christina and her husband Tim have 3 boys.  When the boys were much younger, she took them to a music class and that’s where she learned the value of early music education.  When all the boys went to school full time, she took the opportunity to start teaching music to little ones.  She absolutely loves to witness the wonder and freedom that children have as they listen and respond to music. 

When not teaching, Miss Christina loves to travel, read, spend time with friends and family, and attend many theatre and music productions around Indianapolis.

For over 17 years, Miss Polly (Polly Martin Jones) has been owning and operating Miss Polly's Music Class!  Miss Polly is exactly who you would want for your child's first teacher!  

With both undergraduate and graduate degrees from Butler University (Bachelors in Music Education/Voice and Masters in Ed Administration), as well as being a mother of two, Miss Polly has a deep understanding and love for music and the young child.  Once in a class with Miss Polly, it is easy to see this passion come to life!  

With Miss Polly's background teaching music in the public and private school system, initiating a Developmental PreK Music Program in one of her former schools, and her previous work as an elementary school assistant principal overseeing the special education program, Miss Polly has a sincere passion for meeting the needs of all children through music!

Miss Polly loves living in Franklin with her husband, Andrew, and their two teens.  When she is not teaching the little ones of Miss Polly's Music Class, she is likely cheering on her kids in all their things, practicing yoga, spending time with her family and friends, or walking along the Greenway Trail.

Miss Haley is starting her second year with Miss Polly's Music Class, and was an elementary school teacher for 3 years before having kids! After staying home with her first son, she began bringing him to Music Class and fell in love with the music and the learning she could see in the young children. After teaching for a year, she is even more passionate about seeing musical and social growth in her students!

Miss Haley has an undergraduate degree in Elementary Education from Indiana University, and has a deep passion for helping young kids grow and learn. She takes a special interest in creating relationships with each child to help them feel safe and excited to be in music class! 

Having lived in Columbus her whole life, Miss Haley is thrilled to be providing this class in her community. She loves living in Columbus with her husband and two young boys! She enjoys taking her children on play dates to local parks and events, traveling (especially to Disney), and spending time with her family and friends.  

Miss Haley hopes to get the chance to teach your little one!
