My Project

Our vision is to give elementary students a strong foundation in music by introducing Orff instruments and a variety of classroom percussion, including world drums. These tools will help them develop motor skills, rhythm, and coordination, while also encouraging teamwork and self-expression.

In addition to classroom percussion, we are in need of a high-quality digital piano.

A digital piano will serve as the central instructional tool for vocal warmups, accompaniment, music theory, and performance preparation. It will also allow students to explore harmony, melody, and dynamics more deeply—key elements of a comprehensive music education. Having a reliable digital piano will transform how we rehearse, perform, and inspire creativity across every grade level.

Our students are always asking to learn new instruments and express themselves through music. With your support, our music program can begin the 2025–2026 school year with the tools our students need to dream bigger, grow together, and create a vibrant music culture that will echo throughout our school and community for years to come.
