Music Matters Now More Than Ever
Being a music educator is more than a profession. It's a personal calling and a lifelong journey, and the impact you have on your students will be felt for years to come. Music & Arts is proud to honor you and show our appreciation for the invaluable work you do every day.
This year's Teacher Appreciation Week celebration theme is Fill the Chair — because as a music educator, when you fill a chair in your music room, you fill a student's life with purpose, confidence, and connection.
To show our appreciation for music educators and to celebrate Teacher Appreciation Week, we're giving away:
For All
“A Full Chair Means a Full Life” water bottle stickers
50
$100 gift cards to “fill your chair”
5
$1,000 grants to support your program
