Music in Schools Today (MuST) offers advocacy assistance to parents,
educators, schools and school districts in starting or strengthening
music and arts programs in grades K-12. We help plan, organize,
fundraise and work with legislators and the media.
By tapping into community resources, supporting existing music
programs and designing new programs to meet changing school and
societal needs, Music in Schools Today is helping to develop the
authentic voice of our next generation. MuST's efforts will continue
until the arts are recognized as central to the curriculum in budget
and in law.
If you would like to start or boost a music program in your school,
a good place to start is The National Association for Music Education's
"Building
Support for School Music: A Practical Guide" and VH-1's
Save the Music Foundation's "Building
Your Instrumental Music Program."
