In our strings class, we have many students from all sorts of backgrounds, races, and creeds. In our district, the violent crime rate (83% higher than the national average), the 20% poverty rate, and the aftereffects of the the opioid crisis are all challenges that my students must cope with every day. The strings program here is nationally recognized and provides a creative refuge. We want to not only make music, but also bring joy to those that see us. Unfortunately, our mission is not a cheap one, and we could use any help available!
