AB  - INTRODUCTION: Music is central in the lives of adolescents. While listening is 
      usually the most common form of engagement, many adolescents also learn music 
      formally by participating in school-based and extracurricular programs. This 
      study examined positive youth development (PYD), school connectedness (SC), and 
      hopeful future expectations (HFE) in middle school students (N = 120) with four 
      levels of musical participation in school-based and extracurricular music 
      programs. Levels of participation were based on students' engagement in different 
      music programs, including the Virtual Middle School Music Enrichment (VMSME), a 
      tuition-free, extracurricular program that focuses on popular music education and 
      virtual learning. We also investigated student listening preferences, musical 
      tuition, and daily instrumental practicing. METHOD: Study participants completed 
      an anonymous, online survey that contained five self-report measures including 
      the very-brief form of the PYD questionnaire, a scale of school connectedness, 
      and a scale of HFE. RESULTS: Findings revealed significant differences in PYD 
      scores by grade and gender, and associations between levels of musical 
      participation and competence, a PYD component. Liking music and participation in 
      extracurricular activities predicted scores on SC, and starting formal music 
      education before age 8 predicted scores in HFE. We also found VMSME students to 
      stem from neighborhoods with lower HDI than students in the other study groups, 
      which points to issues of access to formal music education. DISCUSSION: Findings 
      are discussed in light of earlier research on PYD, extracurricular activities in 
      adolescence, the ubiquity and functions of music in adolescence, and deficit 
      thinking in education.
