Welcome!

SSMTA is an educational non-profit organization of over 50 music teachers, founded in 1957. Many of our members teach in the south suburban Denver communities of Highlands Ranch, Centennial and Englewood.

We meet monthly for fellowship, support and professional growth. We provide opportunities for student performance and we advocate for music in our community. Our monthly programs feature a broad variety of topics presented by state and national experts in music education.

SSMTA is a local chapter of the Music Teachers National Association (MTNA) and is also affiliated with the Colorado State Music Teachers Association (CSMTA).
