Claire Schneider is a homeschooled senior and a dedicated Christian. She has been playing the cello since the summer of 2020 and is currently a student of Mrs. Alicia Randisi-Hooker. This is her second year in the KSYOA. She has also played in the Morristown Orchestra led by Mrs. Darby Crigger for two seasons. She has no college plans and wants to be a stay-at-home homeschool mom. Claire is pursuing Suzuki teacher certification so that she may teach her future children and others the cello. But above all, she wants to use her music to glorify the Lord.
