NAMM selects 100 BEST Communities for Music Education in America.
Congratulations to Orange County School Districts: Placentia-Yorba Linda Unified and Irvine Unified
A letter to David and Diane Browne from PYLUSD: "Only 100 school systems in the U.S. are given this designation each year. We could not be any more grateful for the support we have received from our district, community and Anaheim Band Instruments.
In fact, as part of the application I mentioned how much support our district programs receive as a direct result of workshops/clinics you sponsor, the free- at-school instrument repair, fundraiser sponsorships, guest artist appearances, and your work on the Arts Advantage committee, to name a few.
Thank you both VERY much. As community members, music education partners, and NAMM affiliates, I know you share the pride that comes with this National recognition! Thanks again."
