FOCUS ON ADVOCACY: NOW MORE THAN EVER…

Anticipated budget cuts for schools across the country are causing concerns about support for school music programs. More than half of the state and district-level music supervisors recently surveyed reports that their schools are currently experiencing cutbacks now or expect them in the coming year, and more than half expect those cutbacks to impact the music program specifically.

Join the effort of music education advocates working together to support a quality education for all children that includes music and the arts.
