CUSD needs to supplement the PE, music, and art teachers for the elementary schools. There is a constant turn around because they are not paid enough to stay. Certificated hourly pay does not compare to a salary position and the certificated teachers find better jobs. If Carlsbad is going to try and have the reputation of being a great school district, they will need to make these salaried positions.

I am a former CUSD student who went through the Carlsbad district schools when they DID support music in all grades. I went on to earn bachelors and masters degrees in instrumental music, and am a working professional musician today. If I had not had the opportunity to start my music education in elementary school, I never would have been competitive in the real world of professional music. Middle school is just too late to start. Plus, my early music education made me stronger in math, writing, and critical thinking, and I graduated in the top 5% at every level. This is so important!!! The Education Foundation simply can't do it on their own.

Please consider having a weekly instrumental music class and a weekly chorus class for 4th and 5th graders, and a weekly general education class for all elementary age children.

These teachers inspired me when I was young. It is thanks to them that I have a successful career in musical theatre. Thank You!

My two daughters, one a Sophomore in college and the other a Junior at Carlsbad High, were lucky to have music in elementary school at Hope Elementary (we LOVED Mrs EVANS) and have continued to participate in band to this day. It is proven that there are many benefits to music education and and it should be a priority for School Districts to fund. Please don't let music programs die in our Carlsbad schools! CEF has been instrumental in funding music programs in our schools but they can't, and shouldn't have to, do it alone.

I support this petition campaign. Our children need this precious skill that is fading. We need to invest in our future just like math, English and science. I also support funding these needs by asking the numerous "Assistant Superintendents" with high salaries to put aside your hefty incomes and invest in our district. Too high overhead and not enough interest in what is most important - successful, creative, responsible, educated children.
Music is a necessity!
Keep music in schools.!!
