My Project

Our school is full of talented students. Starting this drumline will be able to tap into the potential that these students have to be the greatest percussionists/musicians this city has ever seen! It would also give them something constructive to do while building character and ultimately molding them into model citizens. Being on the drumline takes hard work, perseverance, dedication, discipline, and courage. Building those qualities and characteristics within the students serves a higher purpose and they deserve to experience this type of activity! Please help us reach our goal!
