My Project

During this past year, our music program has really taken a big hit during the COVID-19 pandemic. From not being able to make music together, to monetary restrictions, it has been hard to always get the materials that are needed.

With these materials, this will ensure that students are able to continue the rest of their school year playing music with all the appropriate materials that they need.

Materials such as reeds are a daily necessity for students, however, go through them quickly due to normal wear and tear. Reed costs can also add up quickly for students, which is why we want to ensure they have enough to supply them through the end of the school year without worrying about not having a good reed to play on.

Our students are learning to properly care and maintain the instruments that they use so that it can last for many years. All of these supplies will help increase the longevity of our inventory as well as keep encouraging the students to create beautiful music.
