The East Meadow Free School District has once again been honored with the Best Communities for Music Education designation from The NAMM Foundation for its outstanding commitment to music education. The designation is awarded to districts that demonstrate outstanding achievement in efforts to provide music access and education to all students. East Meadow is among the 925 districts selected for this distinction.

Now in its 25th year, the 2024 Best Communities for Music Education program has recognized hundreds of school districts and schools across the country for the outstanding efforts by teachers, administrators, parents, students and community leaders for their support of music education as part of a well-rounded education for all children.

The NAMM Foundation is a nonprofit supported in part by the National Association of Music Merchants and its approximately 10,300 members around the world. The foundation advances active participation in music making across the lifespan by supporting scientific research, philanthropic giving and public service programs. For more information about The NAMM Foundation, please visit www.nammfoundation.org.

The district would like to thank everyone who contributed to this achievement, and we commend our Board of Education for their continued support of music and arts education.
