My Project
Drum sticks are essential tools for my percussion students at Lied STEM Academy, because they provide the foundation for all playing techniques and musical expression. Without proper sticks, students cannot fully participate in class activities, develop accurate grip and control, or produce appropriate tone and dynamics. Each pair of drum sticks becomes an extension of the student’s hands, helping them practice correct technique, build muscle memory, and gain confidence in their playing. Consistent access to their own sticks also promotes responsibility, pride, and preparedness—key traits that positively impact their growth as young musicians.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
