Conn-Selmer Education Mission Statement

Across North America, over 15 million students learn music and life lessons as part of a school band or orchestra. They are led and taught by professional music educators who are charged with all details of organizational management, and providing clear educational guidance to every individual student.

It is the mission of Conn-Selmer, Inc. to provide an educational center, ongoing reference source, and support network for the professional growth of music educators. Networking and communication between music educators is vital for the expansion of new ideas and techniques. It is our goal to provide an educational forum that supports the day-to-day realities of music classroom management. We also support college students entering the music education field as they bridge the gap between their university training and their first professional experiences.

By providing resources and opportunities that enhance the classroom experience, we hope to provide music educators with more time to focus on performance, more positive outcomes for teachers and student, and overall growth in music education opportunities.
