The purpose of this poster is to define the curricula differences throughout rural, urban, and suburban general music classes in the state of Wisconsin. According to Miksza and Gault, “White suburban students of high SES (socioeconomic status) tended to receive significantly more music experiences than students of color from urban and rural settings of low SES.” This means that those who have access to the resources needed will receive a better music education experience than those who do not have access. This poster will provide evidence as to how easily accessible resources for music education are in rural, suburban, and urban communities in order to define a curriculum that represents students of all races and socioeconomic statuses.
