Music Committee

Music is a vital part of our school’s culture and curriculum. The Music Committee partners with teachers by offering materials and enrichment to enhance units of study, and supports existing school music programs. We bring visiting musicians to the school, produce the annual PS 130 Music Festival in the Spring, and provide music at school events throughout the year. We need parent and teacher coordinators for each grade. No musical ability is necessary- just a love of music! Contact: [email protected]

Our New School Spirit Song “PS 130 Everybody Smiles.”

In Spring of 2015, we realized that PS 130 did not have it’s own school song, so members of the Music Committee set out to create one.   We openly solicited ideas from the entire school community, then several members of our committee co-wrote this exuberant song based on those ideas.  The goal was to give the students something to sing when they gather together, a song to forge bonds of community and to raise school spirit.  “PS 130 Everybody Smiles” is easy to learn and fun to sing.

Second and fourth grade students premiered the song at the Winter Concert and Winter Bazaar in December of 2016.  The school’s music teachers Mr Arnold and Ms Sorenson have been teaching the song to their students in music class, and classroom teachers will share it with students from all grade levels.  We’re proud to share it here for your enjoyment.

The school that sings together learns together!  Please sing our school song and take pride in our diverse and vibrant community.
