In March, music teachers celebrate MIOSM

"The purpose of "Music In Our Schools Month" 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. MIOSM is an opportunity for music teachers to bring their music programs to the attention of the school and the community, and to display the benefits that school music brings to students of all ages."

-National Association for Music Education-

To celebrate MIOSM in Fairbanks, the local music teachers organize evening concerts and use the proceeds of shirt sales to provide scholarships to local students to further their musical education.
