As March is Music In Our Schools Month, there is no better way to celebrate than talking with NAfME president Scott Sheehan on the importance of music education across the nation! Scott's presidency began last year, but he has been in music education for nearly three decades. As the Director of Bands and Music Department Chairperson at the Hollidaysburg Area Senior High School in Pennsylvania and former President of the NAfME Eastern Division, he continues his work in advocacy and relationship building throughout the entire country.
While we celebrate music education this entire month, this conversation provides context behind why we should be advocating for music in every school. There are central talking points in this discussion, too, including:
- How Scott's background has helped him in his presidency
- Resources for music educators all over in Music In Our Schools Month
- Balancing advocacy, research, learning, and growth
- The trajectory of music education opportunity in the US
- Emphasizing collaboration and trust in music education
