President's Message
Welcome to the Sault Ste. Marie Branch of the Ontario Registered Music Teachers' Association! We are a passionate group of music educators that aim to provide the highest calibre of music education to our community. We organize and present a wide range of programs on behalf of our members and students at both the local and provincial levels. These programs include performance opportunities, music writing competitions, Canada Music Week celebrations, awards to recognize outstanding accomplishments, professional development and more. Music has the unique ability to promote perseverance, excellence, patience and understanding while connecting the human spirit. Our branch is dedicated to fostering these skills as we guide students along in their musical journey.
