Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

In Modern Band class, my students are learning how to play guitar, bass, drums, and keyboard. It's exciting because not only do they learn the skills and discipline to play these instruments, but they get to apply those skills and play songs that are meaningful and relevant to their lives. This is what makes Modern Band class special, and why I want to make sure my students have all the right materials.

Please help supply our classroom with a portable speaker so that my music students can jam along on their instruments to songs they care about.
