D6 Mas and Pas for Choir


Name: Charles Moe

Competency: D6

Artifact Title: Mas and Pas for Choir

Artifact Type: A note from the back of a choir handbook advertising the choral program's parent booster group, "Mas and Pas for Choir."

Rationale For Inclusion: Competency D6 states that a teacher of music shall know how to involve representatives of businesses, industry, and community organizations as active partners in creating educational opportunities. This image is taken from the back of the choir handbook of Princeton High School in Princeton, MN. It is an advertisement for the choral department's parent booster group, "Mas and Pas for Choir." This is the kind of group that helps to drum up community support. They are also responsible for helping to raise funds for contacting local businesses. Such a group is very valuable for fostering community involvement in a music program.
