My Project

My students and I are looking for a place to store our music in our classroom. Currently, we have a cabinet with broken shelves which students pile their music binders in each day. The binders get easily lost and the students often do not have their music to participate in class.

In the time that I have been at my school, the choir program has grown from 17 students to over 60 students.

With this growth comes the need for more Fleetwood Harmony Mobile Folio Storage Please consider donating to this project to help my amazing students. They are hard-working, talented, and kind and deserve to have a home for their music!
