Mini-Campus Program
As music educators, we are concerned about the decline in funding for music education in our public schools over the last decade. Just as researchers have been finding that studying music helps K-12 students with reading, math, language acquisition and problem-solving skills, the difficult climate of school funding has made music education opportunities scarce in our schools. As the public purse continues to shrink, schools need to offer solid educational opportunities with fewer resources. We believe that the AMI Mini Campus is part of the solution. Through this program, we can bring music lessons and music education into schools throughout the Chicago area. More info…
