My Project
My students are wonderful musicians that come in every day to make the best music that they can. We rehearse every day to perfect our music to present to our friends and family in concert.
We were never supplied with the correct percussion instruments when our program first began.
We have been improvising instruments in the percussion section because we do not have things like woodblocks, bongos, and quality stands for our percussion equipment.
This project will fill many holes that will help us make music better and easier. Thank you so much!
Half of students from low‑income households
