Most students in school are most interested in academics, athletics, or both at the same time. If there are any of you out there like me, you're more into music programs. Music in schools is a great thing to have. They say that kids who take music classes in school have an easier time with multitasking. I also talked to a few teachers (some of them are sports coaches, some are music teachers, some are just regular teachers) to get their input of music in schools.
Mr. Vaughn: Music is a important part to the "whole' person. There are outlets by which we need to express ourselves and music is a big one just like visual art, speech, theater/ drama. and music tends to accompany a lot of element that the arts provide.
Mr. Procyk: Teaches important life skills. Ex. hard work, persistence, getting along with others. We all seem to connect with music in a way that some people can't even explain, and that is an awesome thing. Seeing music in schools makes me feel honored as a director.
Mr. Vennekotter: It's incredibly important. It makes students well rounded and gives them opportunities to express themselves, whether it's instrumentally, vocally, or just being in an art class.
Mr. Rader: I think it is important because some people might not realize its something they like until they're in it. Another reason is you have to practice and that shows hard work, and they also say there is a relationship between music and math, counting and such. Because of that study it shows that music can help with your studies.
Miss Edinger (student choir teacher): I don't think it's just important, It's essential for all ages because when you study music you practice critical thinking ongoing assessment and emoting. Plus it's really fun. It's learning and understanding a whole other language. It serves as an outlet. By studying music you can make better connections in class. I also believe that everyone wants to learn how to sing or play an instrument. Deep down music connects to everyone.
