Reaching At-Risk Students through Music Education.
Shuler, Scott
NASSP Bulletin, v76 n544 p30-35 May 1992
Most discussions about at-risk students focus on remedying deficiencies in basic skills, often narrowly defined as English literacy and ability to perform mathematical computations. Omitting appealing subjects from a "streamlined" curriculum will only worsen the situation. Through careful planning, administrators can add the power of music to their repertoire for reducing at-risk behavior. (15 references) (MLH)
