Our school has over 300 fantastic students in grades K-8 general education, K-8 Autistic Support and an Emotional Support Classroom. Coming from across Philadelphia, our students out perform almost all other schools our region of the city, even though most come from backgrounds of extreme poverty. Our students are fortunate enough to have General Music and Graphic Arts at two times every week! They are excited and very eager to learn about music, play instruments, and they LOVE to sing. Due to budget cuts, supplies are at a premium. Our teachers must purchase their own copy paper and other supplies. The instruments in the music room are falling apart, and it is impossible for each student to play during the class period. Our students greatly appreciate your generosity and the generosity of the Donor's Choose community.
