As school districts focus on recovering from hurricanes, flooding, and fires, many immediate needs remain.
Music teachers are sharing the urgent needs of their programs and students. Our goal is to ensure that students in these impacted communities continue to experience the joy of making music—without disruption or delay. NCMEA will make every effort to connect school music programs affected by natural disasters with potential donors, prioritizing requests on a first-come, first-served basis.
Here is a * SAMPLE * list of imaginary schools in need.
