All music educators of our state welcome this opportunity to express our appreciation for the support and assistance you have granted our organiza tion in the past. This is the handbook edition of the South Carolina Musician. It contains all the sched ules, deadlines, and rules for our organization during this school year. Please take a moment of your time to scan the activities in which you expect your students to par ticipate. As you may notice, almost every activity requires administrative approval. We are dedicated to the academic and musical growth of all students in our state and we know that you share that dedication. We believe that the self-knowledge and self- worth obtained through the serious study of music provides much more for our stu dents than performance opportunities, as exciting as those are. Please help us to con tinue to teach the whole personality of every student. Scheduling conflicts have been avoided whenever possible. When any unavoidable conflicts occur, students involved will be rescheduled for such events as SAT. Please work with your teachers so that we all communicate any difficulties as rapidly as pos sible. Thank you for your continuing support of SCMEA. All music educators extend an in vitation to you to attend our activities. I know many of you have done so in the past and I hope that all of you will directly experience the musical achievement of your students this year. Best wishes for a very successful year. Sincerely, Jane B. Morlan President, SCMEA S. C.
