The addition of "Arts" into the Science, Technology, Engineering and Math equation is imperative because studies have consistently shown the direct correlation between music education and greater academic performance, improved cognitive development, math and reading skills, sense of community, self-expression and self-esteem.
We also believe that STEAM supplements the ideals of the "Common Core State" standards in school day curriculum, playing a vital role in student's development. It also continues to ensure that they are equipped with the necessary tools and skills to succeed in school, career, and life regardless of who you are, where you are from or what you have.
