School starts soon! On most roadways in Chesapeake, all directions of traffic must stop when a school bus stops to pick up/drop off children. The only time you don't have to stop is if you are going in the opposite direction of the bus on a divided highway with a physical barrier
Music in school gave me so many invaluable experiences. It allowed me to connect with people of every age, academic level, and social status. It allowed me to discover the importance of hard work and selflessness. And, it allowed me to discover the very best version of myself.
Music helps calm nerves. Music helps to psych us up. Music helps bring friends together. Music helps provide a meaningful purpose. Music helps provide a sanctuary and safe space. Music helps provide an emotional outlet. Music helps people get through the day like nothing else.
There’s nothing like making music together. Whether it’s singing, playing, or conducting, it doesn’t matter. There’s just nothing like it, and there’s nothing like the feeling it gives to people. Music is education, music is community, music is joy, music is life. It’s amazing.
In the highest of highs and lowest of lows music comforts us. It helps us to mourn, it helps us to reflect, it helps us to remember, it helps us to celebrate, and it helps us to look forward with hope. While we never know what’s around the corner, we’ll always have music with us.
This Saturday, we're thrilled to welcome over 800 high school students for #ECUBandDay2022! Students representing over 17 schools will join us on the field for the @ecupiratesfb game vs. ODU. What a sight that will be!
Music Education has left an indelible mark on my life, and will continue to do so until my time here’s done. Music doesn’t just bring great joy and happiness to an education, it brings great joy and happiness to a lifetime. Want to positively influence a life? Fill it with music.
Playing in a band or singing in a choir is so much more than meets the eye. Yes, the music is beautiful, but it's everything else that makes music ensembles so life-changing. The friendships, the laughter, the camaraderie, absolutely everything. Music ensembles are priceless.
Making music with others is one of the many things that makes Music Education so special. The feeling of making music together is like a superpower - it makes you feel so special, so connected, and like you can achieve anything. The power of music should never be underestimated.
