Mrs. Janel O'Dell
Welcome to McBean Elementary!! I am very excited about starting a new school year!! This is my 3rd year as the music teacher at McBean Elementary, but have been teaching for 27 years. I received my Bachelor's Degree in Early Childhood Education from Augusta State University in 1996. I received my Master's Degree in Creative Arts in Learning from Lesley University in 2005. Other grades that I have taught include Pre-K, Kindergarten, 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th Grade and 2nd/3rd grade augmented. I recently received the 2024 樱花动漫 Elementary Music Teacher of the Year Award, was McBean Elementary's Teacher of the Year for the 2013-2014 school year and was a recipient of the WJBF News Channel 6 Golden Apple Awards in 2019. I have been a proud member of the Greater Augusta Area Orff chapter since October of 2022. This group helps me to improve my professional learning as a music teacher as well as connect with other music educators. This past June I completed a 2 week Orff Schulwerk music course and am now Orff Level 1 certified. I have also served as a SMART mentor, team leader, an active member of the PTO, served on the School Council Committee, Honor's Day committee, and other school functions.
I live in Augusta, Georgia with my 18-year-old son, Andrew. I also have a cute kitty cat named Oscar. My hobbies include shopping, watching movies, listening to music, and spending time with my family. I also love Snoopy and the Peanuts gang! I love music and teaching!!!
