Music education is a very important form of education. Just because music education does not directly teach about math, science, English, or other important school subjects does not mean that it is not equally as important. Sadly, though, some people are failing to recognize the importance of music education. Music education, as a result, is disappearing from some schools.

Why schools, especially elementary schools, should continue to offer music education:

Music education has been shown to be very beneficial to students. Students who have been given an extensive music education are more likely to have success in school, success in developing intelligence, success in society, and success in life.

Music education encourages self discipline. Students must practice and practice their instruments to be able play well – students need to be self disciplined to practice. Students cal also learn dedication – it takes great dedication to learn and perfect music. Teamwork can also be learned – students who are playing instruments in bands or orchestras must learn to play not as a soloist, but as part of a team. Students also expand their knowledge with music education – to be good musicians, students must learn music theory, history, and more.

A music education also builds self confidence, hard work, goal setting, humility, and more. Music education does not simply give students knowledge, it gives students new ways of looking at the world (and hearing it, too.) A music education lets students express their creative sides. A music education encourages important values and new ways of thinking.
