My Project

As we look forward to next school year, our orchestra program is in need of supplies to ensure success for every student. The copy paper of various colors will make keeping track of music and sorting binders easier for all students to stay organized and efficient throughout the year. The highlighters will assist them in marking their music, making playing and learning more streamlined and a better experience for them. The Sharpies will allow us to label instrument cases and all the accessories that go with them. This will prevent the 'my instrument is missing' followed by telling me their case is black like almost every other case.
