My Students

At our high school, we are fortunate to have an incredibly diverse student body. Our band students are incredibly driven young people who are working to become leaders and valuable members of our community through music.

We are working together to create a culture that values music education, and all that music can teach us.

We take our natural skills and talents and put them to work in our band program. We learn from each other and we teach others to love music.

My Project

Our school is the oldest school in our county and our instruments are showing their age. Most of our marching band instruments are in complete disrepair and can no longer be repaired.

We are asking for a baritone to replace the derelict baritones that we are currently forced to use in our marching band.

Our students make due with what we have, but we're getting to the point where our potential is limited because of the equipment that we're using. We are excited to continue to grow our program and compete at the state level in marching band, but we will only be able to do so with equipment that functions properly.
