Win a song for your school

September

And not just any song. A school song.

Got an e-mail today from Beth & Scott Bierko, local musicians/singers/songwriters and “arts-in-education specialists” and they’re sponsoring a free school song contest for Westchester elementary schools.

Elementary school children are asked to submit online a 250-word essay expressing why their school deserves a (new or first-time) school song.Â The most impassioned plea will win an intensive 3-day writers workshop with Beth and Scott to conceive, learn and record a unique one-of-a-kind school song. Entries should be addressed to tara@theonswitch.com and the deadline is Friday, November 15, 2008.Â Winners will be announced Friday, November 7 with the details for the song workshop worked out individually with the school.

Check out their website for a little bit of info on how they compose school songs and some examples.
