My Project

My students create a family at our school. We are a performing arts family (bands, choirs, strings, theatre, and dance) that support each other on the stage, in the classroom, and beyond. We are a high school servicing a multicultural population of students from varying socioeconomic backgrounds. We strongly believe that the arts can instill positive change, transform, inspire, and change lives. The music program is a powerful unifier in our school. We are going to build this program over a strong foundation and proud history and generations of art students.

This project is for midi cables, 1/4 instrument cables for our music technology/piano lab.

These tools will support our students' music learning helping them perform, compose, record, and produce content in the 21st-century classroom.

These tools make everything work and have an enormous impact on student learning, from our students interested in recording and production to our special education piano lab classroom, they all benefit from these resources. These headphones, method books, and cables will help us to continue to use these important tools and keep our music technology equipment working.
