My Project

I am a music teacher for 250 3-5 grades. Most of our equipment needs are covered but there are some items that are not covered by the school system. This is where you can help.

These headphones, reeds, and other items will be used directly by my students to further their education in Music and Band classes.

Some items make rehearsal easier such as the Bass/Guitar tuner, which will get us going quickly and improve our sound greatly.

Our students love making music and will benefit from your donations making Concert band and Rock band more accessible to more students.

Mr. Brown Delaveaga Elementary School Grades 3-5
