There is a lot of research out there regarding the connection between 
learning and music, and even arts in general.?? Unfortunately, in our world 
of sports and hyped up heroes, the research is largely ignored by educational 
leaders throughout the country.?? Football is god.

Ray, I think what you are working towards is fantastic. My 
husband always says the kids in band make better academic 
grades than those who aren't. The child I am referencing 
above is academically an excellent student, and does well 
in film making and hang gliding hobbies, too. I would love 
to see charter schools based on arts and nature spring up.
