My Project

Our students are branching out into different genres of music. Over the years our school-owned drum set has become non-functional as a whole. We have been scrapping parts from other drums to keep it going. At this point, our drum set is a mismatch of hand-me-down and cobbled-together parts.

We are really looking forward to getting a new drumset for our band to continue to "Rock".

This new set will be school colors and be a complete set that all parts fit together. Students will be able to use it to practice making different sounds. It will also allow students to better play a variety of music to play for the community.
