Welcome to the 73rd annual Missouri Music Educators Association In-Service Workshop/Conference! Once again, this year’s conference will offer a wide variety of clinic and concert opportunities for music educators of all genres and all grade levels. MMEA Vice Presidents and Advisory Council members have been working diligently to ensure that these offerings will include a diversity of new ideas, proven techniques, best practices, and quality performances for your conference experience. This year’s theme is “MUSIC Makes the Difference!” The impetus behind this theme is to remind us of the value that MUSIC education has in our lives and in the lives of our students. As we find ourselves in the midst of some of the most challenging times of our careers, we must be diligent in campaigning for continued support of our programs. In addition to using the wealth of available information and statistics to reinforce the concept of “Music: It’s Core!” we must not forget to advocate for the undeniable fact that MUSIC Makes the Difference in the human spirit as well. It is important that we remind our school boards, administrations, and communities that the study of Music, for the sake of Music, warrants a high priority in the educational development of every child. On behalf of the MMEA Board of Directors and Advisory Council, I hope that this year’s conference will not only provide valuable opportunities for professional growth, but will also provide you with many opportunities to celebrate the magic of MUSIC! Enjoy the conference!
