PMEA is a service organization to music education in the Commonwealth. The membership includes those engaged in music instruction at all levels, from preschool through college and university, retired educators, as well as those in the music industry.
In addition, college chapters and TRI-M Music Honor Society are comprised of students enrolled in music education. PMEA provides leadership in professional growth and offers special opportunities for musical development to school students.
District One includes over 550 school and private music teachers from Allegheny, Fayette, Greene, Washington and Westmoreland counties. District One sponsors high school and junior high orchestra, band and chorus festivals for members' students who are selected either by tryouts or director recommendation and school size quotas. An honors string orchestra, honors band and honors chorus are offered to student-musicians by competitive audition. District One festival musicians may advance to Region, All State, Eastern Division and National MENC groups.
In addition, District One annually hosts two Jazz Band fests, an Elementary Sing Fest East and West, several Elementary Band Fests and Curriculum/Instruction Workshops for all music teachers.
