Prior to teaching at Fraser, Mr. Santamaria completed a long-term substitute position for middle school band at Carter Middle School in the Warren Consolidated Schools, and has been an assistant with the Fraser High School marching band since the summer of 2014, attending all band camps, weekly rehearsals, and performances.

Mr. Santamaria looks forward to working with the band students at Richards Middle School and continuing the tradition of excellence!
