Music In Our Schools Month
Music In Our Schools Month (MIOSM) is a national annual celebration during March which engages music educators, students, and communities from around the country in promoting the benefits of high quality music education programs in schools. MIOSM began as a single statewide day of celebration in New York in 1973 and has grown over the decades to become a month-long celebration of school music.
The purpose of MIOSM is to raise awareness of the importance of music education for all children – and to remind citizens that school is where all children should have access to music.
Students will get to hear different styles of music during the morning announcements and throughout music lessons for that month. This year we are going to celebrate MIOSM with a spirit week during the last full week of March (3/25-3/29)! We will look at a different style of music each day that week and dress up according to the music style.
