Portledge in the Now.

The Science of Music

Mr. Suzda, Chair of the Music Department, was awarded an exclusive research grant. 
The NYSSMA (New York State School Music Association) research committee selected three action-research projects to be funded for teachers to do music research in their classrooms. The project Mr. Suzda proposed was to look into the neural activity of Portledge music students while they are playing in order to discover activities that unlock the creative centers of their brains. The grant allows Portledge to purchase an fMRI machine to be used for other STEAM projects as well. Mr. Suzda will write and publish a paper for The
School Music News and present the findings at the annual New York State School Music Association winter conference.
