My Students
Our school is located in a low-income urban neighborhood. The school is an important part of the community and families depend on us for a high quality, well-rounded education for their children. We want to give our students the chance to study music.
Our students love music.
Music gives them an overall vitality and enthusiasm for life and provides them with a deep sense of accomplishment and self-worth. They learn to work cooperatively with their peers, focus on instruction and most of all, experience the joy of making music.
My Project
We need 3 Violin Outfits for our music program! Our students love music. Music gives them an overall vitality and enthusiasm for life and provides them with a deep sense of accomplishment and self-worth. They will learn to work cooperatively with their peers, focus on instruction and most of all, experience the joy of making music.
The study of music represents life-long learning for students.
Students who study music learn the joy of music first-hand through concert performance. They also learn to focus and take direction, problem-solve and develop good study habits. Students derive great personal satisfaction from the study of music by opening up their creative abilities. Music builds their self-esteem and gives them confidence.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
