Welcome to the 2022-2023 school year!  This will be my 19th year @ my home school- Coltrane-Webb and 30th year overall as a music teacher.  I am also teaching for my 2nd year "STAR Lab" @ Hickory Ridge Elementary-  I love both of my schools for the same & different reasons. I feel very blessed to be @ both of these fine schools!

 

I taught my first year in Gainesville, FL @ the middle school level, then moved to Charlotte and taught in Charlotte Mecklenburg Schools for 10 years.  I am very excited to be back as General Music/STAR Lab teacher (1/2 time) this year.

 

If you need to reach me, the best way is to send me an email @: michael.rowe@cabarrus.k12.nc.us. 

 

A few things about me: I have been married to my wife (and fellow musician) Terese for 24+ years and we have a son named Jesse (age 15) who is currently in 10th grade @ Corvian HS.  We have 2 cats- a brother and sister named Jack and Eevee. They are Gray Mackerel Tabbies.  I love to run and have competed in 74 official races to date (although Covid19 had cut way down on this activity..)  I also recently have grown to love road cycling (see my pic to the left) and have done 2 biathlons.  I love to fix things- especially older things.  I have many tools and I use most of them during projects.  We live in an actual log cabin built in 1947, so I get to fix things all the time.. I sing professionally for a church in Charlotte as my 2nd job where my wife is music director, and most of my singing is done in latin!
