Music In Our Schools Month (March 2014)


The National Association for Music Education (NAfME) is one of the world's largest music education associations. Working from the local to national level, they provide a variety of resources for everyone from the student to the teacher.

We recently came across one of the programs NAfME operates, which is going on now. Music in Our Schools Month has been going on all of March, so we wanted to call attention to it before it's over. Here is a selection of some of the fun resources for you to explore.


Broader Minded: "A Complete Argument for Music Education," Broader Minded shows how music helps students in every part of life; from creativity to decision making.

Why Music?: Celebrity Public Service Announcements (PSAs) about the importance of music education, available for download for any use (in presentations, on the radio, etc.)

Performances: Seven malls throughout the US are sponsoring school performances. Visit this page to see if they're in your area, there's still several left before the end of the month. Let's give these kids an audience and show them that Music Matters!



These are just three of the exciting components of Music in Our School's Month. Visit the website for more resources and information!


Make sure to check back next week to see our next blog post, which is all about the amazing Landfill Harmonic.
