You are a Critically Important Teacher
It can be so lonely as a music teacher. Always fighting alone for respect, time, and funding!
There’s nothing like finding your group of teacher friends… they GET you.
Find your new tribe right here, in the Critically Important Teachers!
We are a group of music teachers from all over the country who meet virtually just a few times per year to learn, discuss, and be in community with each other.
The cost? Nothing.
What do you gain? Friendship, community, knowledge, and chances to win free stuff (because, let’s be real, we love free stuff)!


Meet your host, Allison Russo!
I’ve been it all– music teacher, non-profit music education leader, and now author and consultant!
And you know what’s the best part of all those jobs? The people.
The Critically Important Teachers is my way of thanking the teachers who have been part of my life and work.
I not only give away stuff, but private webinars and Q&A’s that CIT members get to see before anyone else does.
