Description

Music educator and non-profit leader Allison Russo is your guiding light through “Planning on Purpose: Creating a Values-Based Music Program.” Never forgetting the reality of being a human who teaches music in schools, Allison helps music teachers plot their unique course toward a values-driven music program that truly serves all students with equity and enthusiasm. From first-year to veteran, any school music teacher can benefit from “Planning on Purpose.”  

The never-ending cycle of hoping things will improve, relying on others to keep their promises, and aimlessly trying “something else” stops here. Way more than just a book, “Planning on Purpose” is a groundbreaking methodology for establishing or renewing school music programming rooted in connection, values, and equity.  

“Planning on Purpose” slows you down enough to take a good look around, figure out the root causes of all the issues that keep you up at night, and make an actionable plan to bring your dream music program to life. This resource includes a workbook and several digital templates and tools to fully implement your plan. Learn more about Allison’s work at www.thecriticalgood.com.
