My Project

I have many students who are involved in beginning band and strings class and are excited to learn how to play an instrument. The supplies that will be purchased by this grant are basic supplies that will help my students be able to play their instruments with ease. Reeds will be readily available for those students who accidentally chip their clarinet or saxophone reed (which often happens as a beginner). Replacement strings will be ready for when our {old} strings break or stretchy out and students will have access to music binders and dry erase markers/boards for them to practice note and rhythm during class and at home.
