A Place for Music!

Help me give my students the resources to create music/lyric booklets for performances, new chorus folders and a place for general music classes to store their music folders, journals and sheet music in the music room!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Collis's classroom raised $498

My Project

We have had a wonderful year this year and with this year coming to a close we are hoping to begin preparing for next year! One thing we noticed is that we didn’t have a good place to keep our music sheet music, journals, and worksheets. Also, our chorus folders are well worn and our Christmas/veterans days music packets need to be replaced.

This project will help us to have new folders for both general music and chorus classes, the ability to make new performance packets, and an organized place to put them so that students can access them easily throughout the day!

We appreciate you and your consideration is helping us to have access to materials that will help us everyday in our classroom!

With Gratitude,

Mrs. C
