Help me give my students two new keyboards and various classroom and instrument peripherals we need to keep learning!

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Argerakis's classroom raised $758

My Project

Our students are diverse learners who are developing an affinity for playing and singing music. Keyboards are a big part of our curriculum, but unfortunately our current instruments are over ten years old and are breaking down. My students work on the keyboards during our general music classes, in our two after school bands, and sometimes they even come up during their lunch, or stay after school to practice. These new keyboards will assure that students continue to have the opportunity to develop their keyboard skills while at our school.
