My Project

Hello! This is my first year teaching my school. It is also our first year having a music program! Being that our program is brand new, we are in need of instruments to start performing and practicing.

My goal is to create a section of "modern band" in my general music classes and after-school club, in which students can jam, write songs, and collaborate on rock band instruments.

My students are so excited to have a music program. I have many super talented, aspiring singer-songwriters. These guitars are the first modern band instruments that would start the program. This donation would help make their dreams come to life. Help us make our school rock!
