The Marlboro Central School District Music Department is proud to announce that it has once again been awarded a “Best Communities for Music Education” designation from the NAAM Foundation for its outstanding commitment to music education! This is the fourth time that Marlboro has received this prestigious recognition, which is given to schools that demonstrate an exceptionally high commitment to providing music access and education to all students. We are proud of the outstanding efforts of our teachers, administrators, parents, and students, who have made sure that music is part of a well-rounded education. Bravo!
