John Standerford, Director of Vocal Music
Bachelor of Science in Music Education, Vocal
Northwest Missouri State University - 1986
2017-18 is my 32nd year of teaching Vocal Music (23rd in Bedford). Needless to say, music is one of my passions.
I work to instill a passion for music in all my students. Whether the casual singer or the advanced musician, music has numerous lifelong skills to teach us all.
My wife Linda and I are actively involved in community and church events. Our children are both Bedford High School graduates.

“A song is the pulse of a nation’s heart, a fever chart of its health. Are we at peace? Are we in trouble? Do we feel beautiful? Are we violent? Listen to our songs.” – Yip Harburg
