OSWEGO COUNTY – The NAMM Foundation and University of Kansas have recognized 15 Central New York school districts that maintained their commitment to music education during the pandemic, including Oswego County’s own Mexico Academy and Central School District and Phoenix Central School District.
“Music education changed perhaps more than any other school subject when learning went virtual” is how the nationally-heard NPR program 1A began a broadcast last month. During the pandemic, maintaining a sense of “community” in New York music programs has been challenging, yet dedicated and creative music teachers, staff administrators and students, supported by a wider community, have succeeded in reinventing music instruction.

Democrats are pledging to enact a stimulus package by mid-March that would provide more funding to school districts.
The House is expected to vote on the American Rescue Plan this week.
Ossining Union Free School District is staring down a $5 million budget gap for next school year.
Superintendent Ray Sanchez says budget shortfalls existed long before COVID-19 hit, but the pandemic only made things worse.
Some aid to school districts like Ossining is expected in the next stimulus bill, which the House hopes to pass later this week. It includes nearly $130 billion for state education departments.
