The school district is NOT wealthy but values music education for children.
It amazes me that the schools have enough support to continue the program,
despite the severe financial pressures of the times.  Usually it's music
that takes the hit in favor of various sports. This school district has been
and continues to be a major contributor to providing new blood in
traditional music in Maine. I know that quite a few of them make annual
trips to Cape Breton to get a "refill".
