OUR MISSION:

In resonance with the BASD mission, the BASD music programs provide musical experiences to all students as a process of performing, describing and creating in order to:

  • Enhance cultural understanding both past and present
  • Build empathy towards others
  • Build self-confidence through skill development
  • Build a sense of belonging through positive group dynamics and develop a shared asthetic experience
  • Create independent lifelong learners
  • Create an appreciation for music as a fundamental part of humanity
Through a standards based curriculum and a common set of expectations.

Thank you for your support of music in our schools!
