Well, we are doing it!  Austin Music Partners is in the process of filing for 501(c)3 status to become a nonprofit.  That means once we are approved and get funding, schools can just contact us and book a course.  That is until our funding is used up for that year (first come, first serve).

OFFER

Until we get our non-profit status and get funding, AMP is offering one free course per school, per year.  This course includes up to 4 in-school classes in one day, during the school day, or one class after school.  Eligible schools include all ISD, Charter, and Private schools in the Travis, Round Rock, Hays, San Marcos, Eanes (Westlake)  and Lake Travis districts.  Eligible grades: see Target Audience in the class description, on the Products page.

We have just created a new category of courses called “Thinking Outside the Box.”  These courses are designed to help students think creatively and help them stay positive.  This new category is not directly related to music, or technology, but are essential components of staying competitive and happy in the competitive world we live in.  These courses are geared for middle school and high school students.  You can check these new courses out here.

Had the opportunity to attend an 8th-grade digital media class, in November and observed what they are learning, while getting to bounce ideas off the teacher and students’ heads. What a great opportunity to learn and tweak the classes AMP offers.
