Adams  “Music education opens doors that help children pass from school 
209 West Main Street   into the world around them- a world of work, culture, intellectual 
Port Washington, OH  activity, and human involvement. The future of our nation depends on 
43837   providing our children with a complete education that includes 
(330) 407-8631  music.” - Gerald Ford
