  • Music study positively impacts other experiences within a school and in a community
  • All students can and should learn a sequential and standards-based music curriculum delivered by certified music educators as a critical component of the program of study
  • Music study can develop students who are critical thinkers, self-directed learners, effective and creative communicators, informed and responsible citizens, collaborative workers and quality producers
