Former WPS Orchestra teacher, Mr. Andy Peterson passed away earlier this month. Although many of our current students likely did not know Mr. Peterson, several of our recent alumni and current WPS staff certainly did. We are grateful to Mr. Peterson for his passion and expertise to share string music education with so many in Westminster Public Schools and beyond. The WHS Orchestras and Performing Arts would not be where we are without him. Our condolences to all who knew him.

View Andrew Allen Peterson's obituary, send flowers, find service dates, and sign the guestbook.
