Let’s Review. . .
1. How many students are in the music program and who are they? (Know your demographics)
2. How long will they keep “doing” music as amateurs once they leave us? (Teach musical independence)
3. Have we blessed and honored ALL music as possible and wonderful? (Be open to all genres of self-expression)

NEW: What Music Teachers DoYOU CAN DO IT!
In Closing. . .Pablo Casals
Each second we live is a new and unique moment in the universe, a moment that never was before and will never be again.
And what do we teach our children in school? We teach them that two and two make four and that Paris is the capital of France.
We should also teach them who they are.
