On May 19, 2020, Wisconsin School Music Association (WSMA) hosted its first-ever Wisconsin Educator Forum with guests Tamara Mouw and Julie Palkowski from the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction Teaching & Learning team. During this one-hour discussion attended by over 220 WSMA member school educators and guests, we learned more about current conversations happening between state education associations and WI DPI connected to the 2020-21 school year. A highlight from the conversation is the importance of music educators to immediately become involved with these conversations at the local level.
