About Us

Our Mission

Music To My Mind’s purpose is to provide musical, athletic, and academic education through training, performance, and funding for both students and teachers in Florida.

Our Vision

Music To My Mind aims to provide services under two main categories - music and education. Music To My Mind will provide professional wind instrument ensembles to promote and preserve wind band literature. Music To My Mind will also provide opportunities for the community to perform in wind bands that will educate and expose wind band literature. This organization will also promote Music Education by providing resources to international, national, state and local organizations whose goal is to promote music education in the community as well as academic institutions. Music To My Mind will also provide opportunities for individuals and small groups who wish to connect with professionals in the music industry.

Music To My Mind will also provide resources and opportunities in the field of education. This organization will support teachers in the process of continuing education at all levels of academic institutions. This organization will also provide resources to students of all ages who wish to participate in seminars, camps and events outside of their normal academic institution that will allow them to grow in their education. Music To My Mind will also provide resources to academic institutions so that they may further the continual growth of teachers and students alike through research and trainings.

Community Service Hour Info for Students

We value the work and dedication of music students in gaining musical experience that will benefit them in the future. We are happy to provide community service hours provided that the following provisions are met and within the designated timeframes. These provisions are meant to show that the student is willing to go the extra mile and help the program outside of just playing music. These provisions help teach responsibility and accountability.

1. Students must help with set up and or breakdown of chairs and stands for every rehearsal.
2. Students must help set up and breakdown chairs and stands at the concert venues.
3. If for some reason a student cannot physically perform these actions, please have them speak to Mr. Taylor for an alternative task that still allows them to contribute to the band outside of playing music.
4. The max hours a student can earn per rehearsal is 3 hours and 4 hours per performance(assuming they attended the set up and breakdown process). If they don't help with the set up and breakdown of chairs and stands at the concert then only 1 hour will be assessed. This is the normal concert length.
5. Community Service Forms should be submitted to Mr. Taylor at the end of each season for documentation and signatures. If forms are not provided at the end of the current season they need to be submitted the first week of the next season. If documents are not submitted within this timeframe hours will not be granted. No exceptions except under extreme circumstances which must be discussed with Mr. Taylor in advance.
6. It is the responsibility of the students to follow and meet these expectations in order to receive community service hours.
