myOptions® – Helping Your Music Students
Get a Strong Start on Their Higher Education
High school music educators: Keep an eye out for a special package hitting your school mailboxes soon.
NAfME is proud to continue our collaboration with myOptions®. myOptions is the largest no-cost college and career planning program in the country and provides students, families, and educators with valuable tools and resources to encourage students on their journey towards college and career success. Participation in this program also provides valuable data and insights for our Association to assist us with programmatic changes, professional development, grant proposals, and other important information as we continue to develop relevant and meaningful services for our members.
Your help would be greatly appreciated! We know that your students will need your attention for other critical needs as they transition back to school, so please understand this is completely voluntary.
myOptions packages will be delivered to your attention at your school soon. Our ask is for you to take a few minutes of class time to complete this short questionnaire. If you do not receive a package or would like to participate via an electronic version, please send an email to info@myoptions.org and reference “NAfME Survey Package Request,” and our friends at myOptions will provide you with a link to the online survey or will send you a package of paper forms, whichever you prefer. Your feedback as well as that of your students are extremely valuable to us. This link will provide more information about this program as well as the benefits to students, families, and your school.
