18、nnot. Music has the ability to help some kids, who are uninterested in study, stay in school. Many studies show that learning music leads to positive personal and social results. From my experience, students in the arts can easily build up their confidence and feel at ease expressing their ideas. I

19、was surprised to hear that music was the only subject helping some kids stay in school. To prove that, I did some research myself. I referred to a study by the Centre for Music Research at Florida State University. According to it, students at risk of not successfully completing their high school ed

21、 they had become confident social butterflies by the end of the year. In my chat with Kristi White, I was despondent to learn that music programs are being ignored in schools around the world.
