Martin Luther High School

This past school year, Martin Luther offered students a drumline class!

No experience? No problem! Students learned the basics of drumming, reading rhythms, and performing together as an ensemble. Along the way, they also explored the cultural impact of drumming around the world.

From first beats to full performances, it was exciting to watch our students grow in confidence, teamwork, and musical talent throughout the year!

We are excited to welcome Michael Witt as the next Band Director!

With experience in conducting, music education, and athletic bands, Michael is excited to build our instrumental music program. He earned a Bachelor of Music in Tuba Performance and an Arts Leadership Certificate from the Eastman School of Music, one of the nation's premier music conservatories. He helped direct the athletic bands at Northwestern University and is currently completing a Master of Music in Conducting.

"ML has a proud tradition of musical excellence, shaped by the outstanding leadership of longtime band directors David Krubsack and Jessica Kindschi Walter. As we honor the foundation they helped build, we are excited to welcome Michael Witt." - Dr. Chris Cody

Please join us in welcoming Mr. Witt to the Martin Luther family!

Celebrating Holly Allender!

We give thanks for Holly Allender and her 8 years of dedicated service at Martin Luther, along with her 19 years in education.

As an Administrative Assistant, Holly has been the cheerful face greeting our students each day. Her smile, humor, and positive spirit made a lasting impact on everyone who walked through our doors. She will be truly missed by our entire school community.

We wish Holly all the best and God’s blessings in her retirement!
