Allow me to introduce myself! My name is Shawna and Acclaim was created out of a desire to celebrate music education in our area.

Central KY has a vibrant community of music teachers who have a heart to impact the next generation. We believe that music education is more than just a way to have cool concerts. We know that we are encouraging our students to work hard and persevere even when learning their instrument is hard. We are working to build a generation of resilient students who push through their insecurities and not give up. Music may be our means but it is not the focus.
