We seek to advance the musical knowledge, to promote professional growth among music teachers, i.e. to encourage and support teaching, performance, composition and the appreciation of music through various learning and performance opportunities.
Please support our students!
NJMTA is a non-profit organization that depends on your participation and contribution to further help our students in developing their skills as musicians. Your gift in any amount will go towards: 1. the MTNA competitions - state level winners who advance to Division and National levels will receive travel grants and/or assistance for video recording as necessary. 2. High School Scholarship for any graduating senior who enter college as a music major in either performance or composition. You can click on the DONATE button below.
With your help, the Performathon raised $11,395!
And every dollar raised helps kids grow and learn. As Chris Marchetti, known as “Mr. Chris,” the Director of the Joy, Hopes & Dreams team, says:
“Our goal every year is to turn this group of kids into an extended family where they feel safe and learn to have each other's backs. This is an essential element of self-confidence.”
Thank you again for your hard work and your support - we couldn't do what we do without people like you!
By participating in any NJMTA event, parents give permission to the New Jersey Music Teachers Association(NJMTA) to use photographs or videos of your child taken by NJMTA representative, with appropriate captions, with or without names, in NJMTA publications, on the NJMTA website, social media and/or in the local newspapers.
