Keep the Beat Alive at EW!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Wall's classroom raised $2,318

My Project

What I love most about my students at EWHS is their dedication, enthusiasm, and teamwork. Our percussionists show incredible commitment by practicing regularly and encouraging each other to improve. Music is more than just notes for them—it’s a way to express themselves and build confidence. However, our current drum equipment is outdated and limited, making it challenging for students to develop their full potential. New quints, bass drums, snares, and cymbals will provide the essential tools they need to practice safely, perform confidently, and grow their skills. These resources will help foster discipline, collaboration, and pride in their accomplishments. With your support, we can create a stronger, more inclusive band program where every student has the chance to succeed.
