Encouraging inclusivity in music programs can help maintain a welcoming and supportive environment for all students.

As the school year races to a close, it can be easy for educators to ignore their own social-emotional needs. From final concerts to graduations to recommendation letters, you are constantly being pulled in multiple directions. It is very important to take a step back and remember to take at least a few minutes a day to practice self-care.
