- We believe the study of music allows us to develop aesthetic sensitivity, self-expression and creativity, and to build community, preserve and honor cultural heritages, and celebrate life
- We believe this is best accomplished through comprehensive study of music involving performing, creating, reading, listening, moving, and responding to music.
