Anne Lee What schools have done to folk music (50) RE: What schools have done to folk music 31 Jan 99


This is indeed an interesting topic. Music of any sort in schools depends upon the priority and value the district/school places on it.

I am fortunate to work at a small Lutheran Acadenmy, just four years new where our pastor, a music major, teaches Lutheran hymns and our pre-school/kindergarten/music teacher, Cindy Simon, does an excellent job of teaching a wide variety of music. Students are currently learning about music periods such as Barque, Classic and also learning the background of Underground RR,Revolutionary,and Civil War songs. The students just love it.

You should hear them sing...on pitch, in parts and singing within their God given ranges.

Come check it out if you are in the area.
