In Fall 1999, the Britt Institute launched an ambitious outreach program for young children attending four regional preschools. A distinguished music education specialist is working with both students and teachers to help these schools develop meaningful music education programs.
Britt provides the specialist to the schools at no cost.
The project is generously supported by Wells Fargo. For the past two years, classical music has helped begin each new day at Jacksonville School. Britt provided the school with a unique music listening program, comprised of music CDs and information about the music and composers. A selection is played through the school's public address system each morning with an educational introduction read by the principal. The program is helping students develop their concentration and listening skills.
