Show Choir 101: Bringing Glee to the Classroom

My students need a sound mixer and 3 microphones to effectively perform music in a show choir. This will allow our choir department to continue to grow and recruit!

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. McCaffity's classroom raised $935

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Students

"Creating a culture in singing in Texas!" Our goal is to continue to grow and perform at a very high level. Our school district currently does not own a sound mixer or quality microphones. A new mixer and quality microphones will help give our choir students the groundwork needed to perform.

Our students are extremely talented individuals that have a desire to perform at a very high quality.

These students don't have a lot of resources or opportunities to feed this outlet. This new ensemble is bringing a new opportunity to our students and a extremely high level of excitement to the community.

My Project

This sound mixer and microphones will bring Glee into the classroom and allow the students to create a professional performance right in their own backyard. This will also allow the choir program to grow with a level of excitement and quality that the community has not seen in over twenty years.

This project is vital for the continual growth of our choral department.

Giving new opportunities and reaching new levels of professional quality will allow these students to find a new a renewed love for music and performing.
