East Islip Earns First Best Communities for Music Education Award

The East Islip School District has earned its very first Best Community for Music Education designation from the NAMM Foundation, recognizing the district’s exemplary musical instruction. East Islip was one of just 830 districts across the nation that were awarded this distinction for 2023. Now in its 24th year, NAMM’s Best Communities designation recognizes outstanding efforts in making music education part of a well-rounded education. 
 
“It is a great honor to be recognized as one of the Best Communities for Music Education,” said Dr. Rob Wottawa, the district’s art and music director. “East Islip is a family, and with the support of our teachers, community, board of education, administration and eiMAPs organization, I am not surprised that we were selected for this award. The great achievements of our students are only attainable due to all of us working together to provide the best musical experience possible for our students.”
