Philosophy Statement
Music is an integral part of a complete education. Music engages people in objective, subjective, symbolic, and concrete aspects of human experience.

Music education improves learning in other subjects. Quality music education:

• develops aesthetic awareness and sensitivity
• provides a source of enjoyment which enhances the quality of life from early experiences through adulthood
• provides a means for creativity and self-expression
• provides a sense of history and cultural heritage
• provides opportunity for visible success and achievement in the school and community
• develops life skills for work and a personal success
• makes the school and community a more pleasant place to learn, work and live
• increases the satisfaction derived from music throughout life
• increases understanding of other cultures through music
