Music has been a part of America for generations.  Unfortunately, it may all be coming to an end due to funds not being matched to keep such programs. Music is the essence of everyones' being. Music is a large part of what makes up who we are as a person, a daughter, a mother, father, sister, etc. We need to put our foot forward and show that we still care about this! Music is life. Without it, who knows where we'd be.
