Music in Our Schools Month
The month of March each year is designated as Music in Our Schools Month. In Rome, we are fortunate to have a stellar fine arts program, which includes our music instruction of students in all grade levels and across all mediums. There is no shortage of opportunities for a student who desires to strengthen or learn skills associated with being a musician. Year in and year out, our music teachers are helping our students grow into amazing talents and producing some of the finest performances in our region. This is not only recognized by the vast number of students who continue to participate in music, but also by being named a NAMM Best Community for Music Education several years in a row.
