Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Arts and music are often overlooked in our strive to continually test and drill our students. But it has been proven that a solid education in music and arts is just as important as the core academic subjects.

Our students need a musical outlet after school.

Many are talented singers, performers, and musicians who do not have the opportunity to showcase their skills and abilities. The Rock Band will need instruments. The guitar will be used to practice for performances, jam, and simply rock out. Music must be an important part of their academic curriculum.

Music is an important part of learning and growing. A big part of being in high school is the town halls and rallies where the school rock bands can entertain and bring out the school spirit. Music is one of the most important aspects of a teenager's life. The electric guitars will be used by the school rock band for performances and practices.

Music crosses all bounds for racial equity. It brings everyone together. The rock band is a place where all students are welcome.
