Welcome to the PKMS chorus page!
Welcome to Mr. Guido's chorus page! Mr. Guido has taught music at various schools and is excited to be working at PKMS. He attended The Aaron Copland School of Music at CUNY Queens College through the Macaulay Honors College Scholarship, where he received his BA in music education. He then received his Masters's Degree in Curriculum Development and Instructional Technology from SUNY Albany University. Mr. Guido loves every form of music and constantly performs, composes, arranges, and produces music. He became a music teacher because he wants every student to be able to appreciate and create music since it is a skill that will stay with them for the rest of their lives.
