Linguistics is the study of language systems and is comprised of five components: phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, and pragmatics. Phonology is the study of a language's speech sounds, morphology studies word structure and classification, and syntax examines the order and arrangement of words into larger linguistic units and the relationships between elements.

The document makes the case for hiring an additional music teacher by providing three key reasons:
1) Studies show that playing music decreases stress and improves overall health and wellness.
2) Students involved in music programs have higher college attendance rates (85%) compared to those not involved in music (40%).
3) Students who participate in extracurricular activities like music programs tend to earn higher lifetime incomes since they are more likely to graduate from college. College graduates earn $500,000 more on average than high school graduates.
