Worldwide Leader in 3D Sound Entertainment Gets Social for ‘Music in Our Schools’ Month
A nationwide survey (2010) by the Gallup organization found that 95 percent of Americans believed music was a key component in a child's education; 80 percent agreed involvement in music programs made participants more intelligent and 88 percent believed music education helped teach children discipline. However, according to the same study, in the last five years, the number of children with access to music education programs in publicly funded schools has declined by 50 percent due to state and federal budget cuts. Recognizing the need to support these programs and ultimately the students, Sonic Emotion will donate $500 to one school's music education program if it gets 5000 'likes' on its Facebook page.
