Before coming to McGraw where she teaches Junior Chorus, Senior Chorus, Voice Lessons, Adapted Music, and the newly started after-school Jazz Choir, Mrs. Elia ran a private voice and piano studio out of her home while simultaneously completing two long-term music substitute teaching positions in the Finger Lakes area. Mrs. Elia will also be directing the annual Spring Musical at McGraw in 2022. The musical this school year is Disney's Tarzan! In her free time, she enjoys spending time with her husband, Marcus, family and friends, hiking, traveling to new places and baking.
