2025–2026 Music In Our Schools Month® Composition Call

Calling all Music Educators and Students!

NAfME encourages all music educators to UNITE and celebrate Music In Our Schools Month® (MIOSM®) together. Share with us a 60- to 90-second original composition video that reflects what the MIOSM theme, United Through Music, means to you and your students. Be creative!
