🎶MEET OUR NEW DIRECTOR🎶

Mary Lynn Wooldridge grew up in Sylacauga, Alabama and graduated from Fayetteville High School. She moved to Mississippi in 2018 to attend Belhaven University, where she earned her Bachelor of Arts in Music Education.

Throughout her studies at Belhaven, Mrs. Wooldridge was actively involved in a variety of ensembles including the Blazer Marching Band, Wind Ensemble, Chamber Winds, Piano Chamber Ensemble, Worship Choir, and Orchestra.

For the past four years, Mrs. Wooldridge has served as Director of Bands at Parklane Academy. In this role, she has instructed the concert bands for grades 5–12 and directed the Pioneer Marching Band, which has consistently earned all-superior ratings.

Mrs. Wooldridge is excited to join the Ole Brook family and is grateful to God for the opportunity to continue her career in music education.

As our new assistant band director, Mrs. Wooldridge will help us revitalize our beginning band program at Lipsey, direct one of our junior high bands, and assist with rehearsals at BHS. We are so excited to welcome her to the family!
