Re-birth: 18 Years of Music, Meaning, and Maturing

03-04-2026

Many of the students we began with, back in 2006, are the first in their families to finish school, to attend university, and to build careers. The truly amazing part is that now, as young adults, their dream is not to escape. Their dream is to return. They come back to their communities—with purpose, compassion, and determination. More often than not, they come back to Ghetto Classics as teachers. Most of our current 42 teachers once sat where our students now sit. The learners have become leaders.

Which means, of course, that the program no longer “belongs” to me.

Measuring Your Program’s Results: A Practical Framework for Insight

06-04-2025

Ask any director of a music for social impact program about the program’s mission and goals, and you will receive an impassioned response about helping children, teaching music, inspiring minds, saving lives, building community, and developing social-emotional skills. There is clarity in what we all aim to achieve, built on a vision of happy students and families, beautiful music coming from every corner of a school, and meaningful stories of positively impacting children’s lives. Our vision includes accolades from school leaders or even government officials and others who are inspired by this work.

But how do we know whether we’re actually achieving these goals?

Mientras escribo esto, me encuentro revisando algunos de los programas de las sesiones de las reuniones más importantes de nuestro campo en el transcurso de los próximos meses. Muchas de estas reuniones tienen su propósito anclado, aclarado y fundamentado, y, sobre el papel, ¡esto es realmente inspirador! Sin embargo, es lamentable ver que muchos de los temas son los mismos que debatimos hace dos, tres o cuatro temporadas. Seguimos abordando los mismos problemas, en lugar de cuestiones nuevas y agravadas en torno a las cuales todos debemos unirnos para corregir el rumbo.
