INDIANA STATE SCHOOL MUSIC ASSOCIATION, INC. 2019-20 EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE/DIRECTORS President: Rick Granlund, North Central High School Vice President: Tom Dean, Castle High School Past President: Bonnie Harmon, Salem High School ISSMA Executive Director: Michael K. (Mick) Bridgewater Instrumental Education Director: Mark A. Middleton Choral Education Director: Scott A. Bradford “A Statement from the ISSMA Office” Directors are responsible for the behavior of their students at all ISSMA events. Instruction regarding proper conduct and expectations should be a part of the overall educational process. It is crucial that host schools, administrators and teachers can confidently host our events without fear of damage or inappropriate behavior. The directors of the member schools will serve as the liaison between ISSMA and schools, students, parents, and staff members regarding questions, comments or concerns for all ISSMA events. Direct contact with any adjudicator is considered inappropriate. Thank you in advance for your cooperation. ISSMA Statement of Philosophy (Core Values) ISSMA believes that every student in grades six through twelve attending an Indiana public or private school should have the opportunity to participate in a music ensemble taught by a licensed music educator that is included as part of each school’s core curriculum. ISSMA believes that participation in school music ensembles contributes to students’ language and auditory development; physical, emotional, and social development; and cognitive and creative thinking skill development. ISSMA believes that participation in educationally evaluated music performance opportunities provide an external assessment that promotes sound educational principles of music education. ISSMA believes that participation in an ISSMA event should be focused on the commitment to achieving individual and group goals and accepted standards of excellence and should not be focused on winning a competition. ISSMA believes it has legal and moral responsibility to provide a safe and respectful environment for participants, workers, adjudicators, volunteers and spectators.
