Clarence Named Among Best Communities for Music Education for 20 Years

We’re proud to share that a video celebrating the outstanding work of our Music Department was recently honored by the New York School Public Relations Association (NYSPRA) in its annual Communications Contest. Created in partnership with Mr. Gordon Block and the Erie 1 BOCES Communication Services team, the video highlights the students and teachers whose dedication has earned Clarence a Best Communities for Music Education designation from The NAMM Foundation for 20 consecutive years. It features music teachers in the District (past and present) and it showcases classroom moments, rehearsals, concerts, and special events that bring our program to life.
