School Association Fee

Join the over 5,000 teachers and students participating in CMEA’s outstanding student festivals!

Connecticut Music Teachers who teach at an accredited, public, or private school may choose to have their students participate in CMEA auditions and festivals, provided that their school has submitted the annual School Association Form (SAF) Invoice with payment. Opportunities to audition for regional festivals are available for students from grades six through twelve, including concert band, orchestra, choirs, and jazz ensembles.

Teachers may register their school by completing the school association fee invoice on this page and mailing it in with payment in the form of a school-issued check made out to CMEA or a school purchase order form.

The School Association Fee is required to participate in all Region Festivals and All-State.
