The NAfME Council for Choral Education advocates for continued in-person choral singing in K-12 school music programs. This can be accomplished in a safe manner by meticulous utilization of the CDC guidelines for gatherings and in coordination with your local, state, and governmental efforts. We believe that music education is essential to a balanced education for K-12 students.
