OCMAA Mission Statement founded by the Orange County Department of Education, the Orange County Music and Arts Administrators (OCMAA) is an enduring and active coalition of school districts, community arts organizations, parents, and business leaders who work collaboratively to ensure a high quality inclusive, accessible, and equitable arts education for every child. To prepare the next generation of leaders, artists and innovators, we recognize that a sequential, standards-based arts education creates well-rounded students who possess the skills to be creative, innovative, and resilient. We believe in informed leadership and quality programs, and we support those who daily provide arts opportunities for students. OCMAA's monthly meetings are open to representatives from all of Orange County and we encourage your districts to find the person who will be the cheerleader and advocate to guide this work.
