My Project

This project will not only give us the essentials for success throughout the year but will also provide new opportunities on instruments for students. All of the items on the project will immediately be used and will be so helpful for my students. If you give to this project your donation will be in use for a long time. I want all of my students to be successful and this project is step one in that process.

We have an award winning band here and want to keep it going, thank you.
