Partners in Education
2001 Exemplary Partnership Award Winner

The partnership between the Armed Forces School of Music and the Virginia Beach City Public Schools instrumental music program offered students a chance to receive instruction and assistance from professional musicians.

Armed Forces School of Music
and the VBCPS Instrumental Music Program


The Armed Forces School of Music entered into a partnership with the school system's entire instrumental music program in 1995. The School has hosted the solo-ensemble festival, assembled the honors concert band and honors stage band to perform in conjunction with the all-eastern band and the instrumental clinic. The school also hosted student tours of its facilities and gave students the opportunity to perform with professional players and conductors. The school has benefited through its now enhanced link to the civilian community and awareness of the School of Music's mission has increased throughout Virginia.
