Participation in the Learning Laboratory School Network (LLSN)

 

The LTMCG has become part of a national network of music integration and education programs united by using music to learn in and through musical experiences and skill development. Our participation in LLSN will benefit our clients in the following ways:

 

        1. Our work will become more visible because it will be shared nationally.
        2. We’ll have access to more curriculum ideas, lessons and documentation strategies.
        3. We’ll be emerging as a professional development center for other schools in the network.
        4. Participating in the LLSN will give us more capacity to work with schools to meet their school mission goals and document evidence of school improvement through music.
