The Broward County Music Teachers Association was established in the autumn of 1965. In 40+ years, this association has become one of the largest and most active music teachers associations in South Florida.

In its first month, there were 20 paid members.  Today, membership has grown to more than 60 members.  In its first year, there was one activity. Today, BCMTA offers more than 15 different activities throughout the school year in which teachers and their students may participate.  BCMTA teachers have become involved not only at the local level, but also at state, divisional, and national levels. 

BCMTA holds regular general meetings, with programs presented by members and guest clinicians to expand our minds and enrich our teaching and listening experiences. BCMTA continues to administer many fine programs and competitions for its students. The level and quality of student performances are consistently the highest caliber, attesting to the fine teaching by our professional members.
