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.
I teach middle school drama/speech grades 6 - 8. We are a title I school district in a high-risk community where most of students are minority and low-income.
Our new drama/speech program was created to promote public speaking skills in a community where many students are English language learners. Our students do not have daily access to formal speech skills. They learn to speak in slang, but learn to speak very little formal language. Our students need to develop the speaking skills the need to succeed after school in interviews, in college, or in the workplace.
We want to get these children excited about not only speaking, but singing because both will improve their speaking skills and confidence.
We started a musical theatre program that both the children and the community are excited about, but we do not have a strong piano player.
If we had a CD player with musical theatre songbooks, the children can practice musical theatre numbers and improve their skills over time. We can also use the CD player when we rehearse for shows.
Your donation can make is possible for these children to improve their speaking skills through music.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
