Macphail Center for Music will deepen core programs (registration-based classes, early childhood music, community partnerships). In 2013, MacPhail will increase enrollment by 4%, going from 9,000 to 9,400 students enrolled at all facilities in downtown Minneapolis, Apple Valley, and White Bear Lake. As part of MacPhail's projected growth, community partnership enrollments will increase by 15%, going from 66 to 76 partnerships in schools, day care centers, seniors' assisted living centers, hospitals, and community organizations. Enrollment is measured through reports from MacPhail's student database and reports provided by MacPhail community partners. 2: MacPhail Center for Music will develop new opportunities (online learning, early childhood music, artist-in-residence). In 2013, MacPhail will begin implementing Phase 1 of MacPhail Online Programming (with professional development resulting in 75% of faculty using online software, websites, and applications in music education). Early Childhood Music enrollment will increase by 10%, to 2,470. The 2013 Artist-in-Residence, Gina DiBello, will work with twenty five MacPhail students to share her experience, knowledge, and background as a soloist and chamber and orchestral musician. The MacPhail Online evaluation consists of enrollment reports, student surveys, feedback from school partners and MacPhail faculty, as well as interest and demand for Online School Partnerships. Early Childhood Music enrollment is measured through reports from MacPhail's student database and reports provided by MacPhail Early Childhood Music community partners. Data on the artist-in-residence program is collected via the MacPhail Student Satisfaction Survey. Results will be available after August 31, 2013, when the fiscal year ends.
MacPhail Center for Music is pleased to report that we have exceeded enrollment goals, serving more than 10,200 students representing a 13% increase. MacPhail also noted a 9% increase in the number of community partnerships, growing from 66 to 72. While this increase is slightly below the projected figure of 76 partnerships, it represents an 11% increase in the number of students served through community partnerships (from 4,500 in 2012 to 5,200 in 2013). Overall, MacPhail's reach extended to 60,000 students, teaching artists, and audience members through concerts, events, workshops, and clinics. 2: Phase 1 of MacPhail Online was a success. Thirty-one students are currently enrolled in tuition-based online lessons and 1,200 students at fifteen schools in greater Minnesota. The position of MacPhail Online Manager was added and 40% of teachers participate. Early Childhood Music enrollment exceeded 2,500. MacPhail worked with Minnesota Orchestra Concertmaster Erin Keefe and Principal Cellist Anthony Ross, who coached twenty MacPhail students.
