Trisha Yearwood, Campbell Soup Company and the GRAMMY Foundation announced this week plans to make music education more accessible in tens of thousands of schools across America. Research has shown that when students have access to arts, they tend to also perform better in the classroom. Unfortunately, music programs are being eliminated at many elementary and secondary schools due to the budget pressures impacting schools across the country. Campbell Soup and the GRAMMY Foundation tapped three-time GRAMMY Award Winner Trisha Yearwood to launch the enhanced program.To help address this disturbing trend, Campbell is partnering with the GRAMMY Foundation to provide schools access to the sort of innovative resources needed to offer students a well-rounded music education. Through the partnership, the GRAMMY Foundation`s proprietary Discovery Through Music curriculum will be made available to nearly 60,000 schools nationwide that are registered in this years Labels for Education program. Customized for children in kindergarten through 6th grade, the new curriculum will help young students understand the basic elements of music, including beat, tempo, rhythm and pitch, and apply these fundamentals as part of lesson plans for language arts, math, science and technology.
