Early childhood and elementary music educators have many opportunities this spring for professional development. From April 5-8, NJMEA is hosting the NAfME All-Eastern Division Biennial Conference, which will include wonderful presenters that are lead educators in elementary general, vocal, instrumental music, and elementary music technology. On May 23, NJSMA Elementary Division is hosting the grades 3-5 Elementary Choral Celebration (
http://www.njsma.com/elementary/elemchoirfest.html - registration due now). In June, I will offer all of our 2016-2017 elementary webinars again to view and receive PD, if PD was not received for the first viewing. If you would like to offer an hour-long webinar for elementary music educators, please contact me.
I look forward to seeing you all in Atlantic City!

I will also be hosting the NAfME Eastern Division Guitar Educator Meeting to offer an open forum for educators to exchange 6 string happenings in their states on Friday, April 7th. It is important to please spread the word to the teachers whom you know in NJ and mark your calendars for May 6, 2017 as this will be the 4th annual NJMEA Guitar Festival at The College of New Jersey in Ewing, NJ which will feature the chosen students conducted by Loren C.
