ELEMENTARY PROGRAM STAFF
 
Edie Rice
, Education Director and Associate Conductor of the El Segundo Concert Band, earned her master's degree in conducting from Southern Oregon University in 2007. Mrs. Rice has devoted her musical career to helping young musicians from age eight through high school develop a passion for music.  She has been teaching elementary band since 1997 and high school since 2000.

Through her many years of experience daily in the classroom, Mrs. Rice has developed an amazing capability to help students master performance skills and has earned a strong reputation throughout the community as incredibly gifted in working with children. This is evidenced by her elementary band being filmed by the producer of the Billboard Music Awards as vignettes that were broadcast throughout the national prime-time television show.  In November 2011 she was named El Segundo's Citizen of the Year for her work with community children.
