NASHVILLE, Tenn. \u2013 Artists from across the scope of music and songwriting have come together in collaboration with the National Music Council<\/strong><\/a> (NMC) and the National Federation of State High School Associations<\/strong><\/a> (NFHS) to thank music educators and administrators for their continuing perseverance during these challenging times. The hope is that the messages of appreciation in this video<\/a> are able to help uplift and inspire music educators to keep the music playing.<\/p>\n

This video<\/a> kicks off Music In Our Schools Month<\/em><\/a> (MIOSM), which occurs every year in March as a push for schools across the nation to focus on the importance of music education. The events and programs surrounding MIOSM are a perfect way to increase the awareness of the lifelong benefits that K-12 music programs provide students.<\/p>\n

Many of America\u2019s greatest artists want to let music teachers know that their efforts really do make an enormous, positive difference in the lives of students, especially in times of a crisis. Award-winning musicians and songwriters Garth Brooks<\/strong>, Trisha Yearwood<\/strong>, Paul Shaffer<\/strong>, Rosanne Cash<\/strong>, John Rich<\/strong> (Big & Rich), Jim Lauderdale<\/strong>, Steve Winwood<\/strong>, Nile Rodgers<\/strong> (Chic), Donald Fagen<\/strong> (Steely Dan), Take 6<\/strong>, and the late Chick Corea<\/strong> – along with CMT\u2019s \u201cNext Women of Country\u201d Class of 2021 group Chapel Hart<\/strong> and up and coming singer-songwriter Paige King Johnson<\/strong>, all offer inspirational words throughout the video. We join them
\ncelebrating our music teachers during Music in Our Schools Month<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n
