CALL TO ACTION! Urgent action is needed to prevent catastrophic cuts to Title I and the elimination of Title II funding, which would be devastating to music programs. Send a letter to your representatives before Thursday, September 28! Take action here: bit.ly/462Vt5D

Thank you @ALMusicEd for making a difference for #musiceducation! As AMEA President Rob Lyda clarifies, 2/3 of schools in Alabama have music programs, “but we must advocate until 100% of schools offer music courses.” wsfa.com/video/2023/03/22/al… #MIOSM #MusicIsAllOfUs
