Meet our Choir Director
Jane Waldrop has been the Choir Director at Herndon High School since 2023. Before joining the Herndon High music program, she directed choirs at Hughes Middle School and Clearview Elementary School, inspiring students across all grade levels to discover the joy of singing.
With over 20 years of teaching experience, Jane brings a deep passion for helping young musicians grow in skill and confidence. She holds a degree in Music from James Madison University and a Master’s degree in Education from the University of Phoenix.
In addition to her work in education, Jane sings alto with the Master Singers of Virginia and Caritas Nova. She has presented at the Virginia Music Educators Association Conference, was honored with the Herndon Optimist “Partners in Education” award, and is a two-time recipient of the “FCPS CARES” award for excellence and dedication in teaching.
Jane is dedicated to building a strong, inclusive choir community where every student can find their voice — both in music and beyond.
