While music programs are still very common here is SE Michigan, school STRING and VOCAL programs are far less common. Lots of places it's band or nothing....after all, you can't have a choir or an orchestra march at the football games. Other parts of the country, especially more rural areas, it is not at all uncommon for districts to have pretty much zero music education. People's "global" perspectives tend to be dominated by local reality.
