My Students

The singer has everything within him. The notes come out from his very life. They are not materials gathered from outside. ~Rabindranath Tagore

I am currently teaching K-5 music at a Title 1 school in Eastern North Carolina.

This means that a large number of my 370 students receive government assistance. My students are anxious and eager to learn. They enjoy all aspects of music from singing to playing to listening. Additionally, many of these students are English Language Learners from Burma and Thailand refugee camps.

My Project

I have a problem. A good problem, but it's still a problem. My students LOVE to sing. They happily sing with a smile on their face. The problem is that they get so excited when they sing and they sing out so loudly that you we can't hear the music!! A Bose sound system would give us the sound we need to continue singing.

You can, and do, make a difference every time you donate.

Please consider donating to our classroom. Your donations, big or small, will help to make music come alive!! Help us keep the music going!
