We are currently looking for a parent to represent Lisbon ES in this wonderful organization that supports music in our public schools. This organization advocates for music education through various avenues and supports music education in all Howard County Schools. We would love to see Lisbon represented in this great organization. If you are willing and interested, please contact Mrs. Trueblood or Mr. Carter for more information.
Description from the HCPSM Website:
Howard County Parents for School Music (HCPSM) is an advocacy group that formed in the winter of 1993 in response to a threat to eliminate the position of Music Resource Teacher and possible cuts to the elementary instrumental music program. HCPSM spearheaded an effort by parents, teachers, and citizens to contact school board members to express support for the music resource position and continued staffing of elementary school instrumental music teachers. As a result, positions were saved. Through these efforts, it became apparent that there is a continued need to educate board members, school administrators, and the community on the value and importance of music education and the resources required to offer a quality music education.
