Community Spotlight
It’s because of the Best Communities for Music Education designation that our music programs have been able to withstand dramatic school aid cuts. After we received this designation in 2006, Senator Owen Johnson awarded the district a $70,000 grant for the purchase of new music textbooks and development programs for our music teachers and staff.
