The value of music in our schools
I have had the opportunity and
privilege to teach instrumental mu-
sic for 30 years, 2 3 of those years in
Port Aransas. For those of us who
are deeply involved in teaching music,
it is apparent what an important role
the arts, specifically music, play in
the development of any student. It
we believe schixils exist to develop a
child for a productive and meaning-
ful life, then we must look at the
contribution music makes in the
scope of the total curriculum. The
follow ing is taken from “The Value
of Music" written by Dr. Tim
Lautzcnheiser, appearing in a special
edition of the Texas Music Educator
in May 1999.
The process of making music is
the reward. Music is beauty within
itself. Itoffersa microcosm of life for
the essence of life is in the living: the
journey, not the destination; the pro-
cess, not the product; and ultimately
the purpose, not the outcome.
Music offers an opportunity to
experience the pleasure of self-ex-
pression at a new level, opening
exciting vistas of self-satisfaction.
Music class is a place which is
“expressionistic” and students are
encouraged to put their own thoughts
and feelings into their music-mak-
ing.
The veteran musician knows that
music speaks to something more
subtle than the
intellect; it
speaks to the
very soul of
human kind.
Think of your
reaction w hen
you hear
Handel’s “Mes-
siah," or feel
the heart-
w r e n c h i n g
plea of a tal-
ented blues
singer. We
know there is
happy music,
sad music,
music for cel-
ebrations, and -
music to soothe wounded emotions.
What else can generate such feel-
ings?
Music develops the appetite for
learning and creates habits of self-
discipline and personal tenacity
which carry over into every facet of
school. Young musicians are skilled
at concentration, alertness, memory,
and self-control. These attributes
are basic for success in higher educa-
tion, hut more importantly, in suc-
ceeding at life.
There is a strong correlation be-
Ehucation Notes
Jim Cole
PA1SD Band
Director
At school board meeting
tween music and disciplines of sci-
ence and math-music uses the same
reasoning processes. And the social
requirements of group effort and
communication, along with the de-
velopment of motor skills, are an
integral part of every music lesson.
Every individual is a unique and
important source of human poten-
tial. To be able to offer our personal
artistic signature to any endeavojr
offers usa special place in life. Music
does give us a vehicle to critically
express our individuality while sup-
porting our fellow beings..
In today’s world, so many young
people seem to be lost, swimming
about in a maze of quick fixes, des-
perately looking for something other
than fashion labels with which to
identify.. If their musical talents are
developed, nurtured, and sought,
then their value increases, and they
have worth...self-worth, the most im-
portant component of a fruitful lift*.
This article certainly does not sug-
gest the study of music to the exclu-
sion or expense of other subject
areas, hut merely states the funda-
mental importance of the music in
the basic development of the stu-
dent.
Just as there can he no music
without learning, there can lie rip
education without music.

Tonight’s, Thursday, Nov. 11, Port
Aransas school board meeting will
begin a half an hour early. The
meeting will begin at 6:30 p.m. in
the Port Aransas High School library
and will include a reception honor-
ing volunteers serving as school dis-
trict mentors.
Introduced during the second se-
mester last year, the program that
pairs adults and students was met
with rave reviews. The school dis-
trict modeled the mentoring pro-
gram after a program developed by
Dr. Susan G. Weinberger, president
of the Mentor Consulting Group in
Connecticut, which received the
President’s Volunteer Action Award
in 1993, the National Association
of Partners in Education Creative/
Exemplary Program Award in 1990.
The program has been featured in
the New York Times, School Board
News, Journal of Educational Publi-
cation Relations and other publica-

tions.
This is the first time the district
has held a reception to honor the
volunteers, according to Superinten-
dent John Rouse.
“We wanted to take time to honor
and recognize our mentor volunteers
for their work with the district,” he
said.
Action will also be taken concern-
ing the approval of an alternate pro-
curement method to expedite the
repair process for flood damage at
the high school. Damage occurred
at the school after the roof leaked
during Hurricane Bret. Flood dam-
ages are estimated between
$200,000 and $300,000, according
to Rouse.
Readers treated
to pizza party
H.G. Olsen Elementary School
second grade students of Clare
Adams earned pizza for reading.
The students were offered the
option of reading an extra book each
week and completing a form to he
turned into the teacher.
If at the end of the six weeks pe-
riod, the children had turned in the
correct number of forms, tjiey were
given a trip to Jay's Seafood and
Spaghetti Works to celebrate their
extra effort.
There were IH students who
worked extra hard and earned the
pizza party as participants in the
voluntarv nrooram.
With approval, Rouse will be able
to bypass the bidding process in this
circumstance and select a contrac-
tor to make the repairs. The super-
intendent is allowed to do this uji-
der Section 44.031(h) of the Educa-
tion Code in that the delay posed
by the usual procurement methods
would substantially impair the con-
duct of classes or other essential
school activities.
In other business, the board vyfll
convene into a closed meeting K>
discuss an evaluation process for tl|b
superintendent and to establish per-
formance goals to be used in hi}>
overall job appraisal.
In open session board members
will also be asked to approve a reso-
lution opposing Corpus Christ^
proposed annexation of land, arfak
“F,” located on Mustang Island. !
Other agenda items include:
• A resolution to cast the district’d
votes for Jim Gibson for the Nueces
County Appraisal district
• A request for approval of thd
changes to Policy DEE, which limitd
the mileage reimbursement amounj
to .31 per mile and nightly lodging
limit to $11 5 per night
• A request for approval concern!
ing changes to Policy CF, w hich linv
its the level of expenditure that car(
be approved without board signaturd
