Midlothian ISD receives "Best Communities for Music Education" award

Best Communities for Music Education award from The NAMM Foundation

Midlothian ISD has been awarded for the sixth consecutive year with the "Best Communities for Music Education" designation from the NAMM Foundation for its outstanding commitment to music education. The national recognition is awarded to districts that demonstrate outstanding achievement for providing music access and education to all students.

To qualify for the Best Communities designation, MISD answered detailed questions about funding, graduation requirements, music class participation, instruction time, facilities, support for the music program and community music-making programs. Responses are verified by school officials and reviewed by the Music Research Institute at the University of Kansas.

Over the past 25 years, the national BCME award has honored more than 1,000 schools and districts in 43 states, for their unwavering commitment to music education as an integral part of a well-rounded education for all students.

MISD's designation as a BCME school district serves as official recognition of our dedication to providing a comprehensive education that includes the arts.

Earning the BCMS is a collective effort among teachers, administrators, parents, students, and community leaders who have been instrumental in making music part of a well-rounded education for every child in MISD. We applaud your community's unwavering commitment to creating an environment where each child can learn and grow with music.
