BAHS Music Department Mission Statement
The Bel Air High School Music Department is dedicated to the development of individuals who are aesthetically aware, artistically disciplined, and devoted to a lifelong association with music, either through direct performance, or as a culturally enlightened audience member.
It is our goal to provide comprehensive music experiences in a positive atmosphere thereby encouraging our students to:
• Develop an awareness of the value of music in our lives and our society.
• Act as goodwill ambassadors for our school community at the local, state, and national
level.
• Develop important life skills such as self-reliance, independence, and teamwork.
• Strive to become confident, respectful, responsible, self-regulating individuals who will
be well equipped for maturity as independent, productive adults in our society.
