PRIDE ACROSS THE FRONTIER: celebrating our music program
Westfield High School has nearly 3x the state average in student music participation.
More than half of Westfield High School students make music every single day!
🥁 52.5% of WHS students are in Band, Choir or both
🎺 18.3% statewide average (most recent available data)
How music education helps:
Better grades: A large study in the Journal of Educational Psychology showed that high school students who take music classes score higher in math, science and English than peers who do not take music. www.apa.org/news/press/releases/2019/06/music-students-score-better
THANK YOU to our dedicated music educators, supportive families and talented students for keeping Pioneer Pride sounding so strong!
