Abstract: The purpose of this research study was to describe the status of public elementary school general music programs of Charlotte and Mecklenburg County, North Carolina. Specifically, the goals of the investigation were: (1) to describe the current status of elementary general music programs in selected public schools of the Charlotte- Mecklenburg School System; (2) to compare music goals, objectives, and criteria for each elementary grade as documented by the Charlotte-Mecklenburg School System with those of the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction; and (3) to determine the extent to which music goals, objectives, and criteria of the Char1otte-Meck1enburg School System have been implemented in the selected schools. Data collection instruments for the study included the "Elementary Music Teachers' Questionnaire" and the Silver Burdett Music Competency Tests (1979). A comparison was also made between the state (North Carolina) and local (Charlotte-Mecklenburg)elementary music curriculum guides.
