Proposed School in Waukesha to Promote Band, Choir

In a day and age where budget cutbacks loom in the face of all public schools, it's nice to see some districts fighting back. As of late, musis and art programs in countless schools have been placed on the chopping block in favor of the dollars and cents bottom line. A new charter school is being proposed in Waukesha county that would have the students spend at least three hours a day in music related classes, while the remaining core classes would have a musical influence to them. This school may actually come to fruition, as the North Lake School District was recently awarded $10,000 to plan this school. The school is expected to have an enrollment of 120 students and to hopefully open its doors by next fall.
