JORI PULVER-SETTLER
Round Lake Middle School | Director of Bands

Mrs. Pulver-Settler's enthusiasm for teaching young people skills in leadership, communication, and team work through instrumental music stems from her own experiences as a student.
She...
  • ...was born and raised right down the road in Grayslake, attending the Fremont District 75 schools and graduated from Mundelein High School in 2007
  • ...knew that she wanted to be a Band Director from the moment she picked up the clarinet in fourth grade.
  • ...spent all the time she could in her schools' band rooms because they felt like home.
  • ...performed in the MHS concert, jazz, and marching bands, as well as in the show choir and the theater programs. 
  • ...credits her high standards for her musical performance and work habits from her teachers both at school and with private clarinet lessons from Jim Kaspryzk.  She sat first chair in the top instrumental ensembles for four years straight with her bass clarinet, Buffie, and her unnamed tenor saxophone.  
  • ...placed first in the ILMEA District and All-State Bands on bass clarinet, as well as sat first chair in the Music For All Honor Band of America for two years. 
  • ...served as Drum Major for the Marching Mustangs for two seasons and attended the Music For All Drum Major Academy under the instruction of the late George M. Parks
  • ...became a member of Team SWAG and learned a continually inspiring mantra, "If you can, you must." 
  • ...sat first chair bass clarinet in the University of Illinois Wind Symphony and was part of a one person strong bass clarinet studio under the instruction of J. David Harris.
  • ...lived and worked as a Resident Assistant during her senior year of undergraduate study.  She built a strong, caring, and kind community of college freshmen on her floor.  References available upon request.

​After earning her
 Bachelors degree in Music Education from the University of Illinois in Urbana-Champaign in 2011, Mrs. PS completed her student teaching at Libertyville High School and Hawthorn Middle School North in Vernon Hills.  She then joined the ranks of the Northshore Concert Band under the direction of Dr. Mallory Thompson, Director of Bands at Northwestern University.  Currently, Mrs. PS performs with the North Suburban Wind Ensemble under the direction of Don Shupe, retired Director of Bands for Libertyville High School and is also pursuing her Masters in Music Education at the VanderCook College of Music in Chicago.  

Miss Pulver became Mrs. Pulver-Settler on August 28th, 2016.  When possible, she loves spending time relaxing at home with her husband, Ryan, and their cats, Kaya and Professor Nibbles.  Her favorite food is sushi, and the way to her heart, is unequivocally through coffee and animals.  Mrs. Pulver-Settler loves getting to know new people and solve problems so she hopes to have many phone calls, emails, and visits throughout the school year from her RLMS Band family!
