This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
My Students
The students at my school are incredible, and I'm not just being biased. They face immense adversity outside of the school yet they come to school eager to learn and ready for the next challenge. Music has become an outlet for our students and they impress us by expressing their individualism and their confidence that comes from learning a new instrument.
Our students teach me something new every day through their enthusiasm, charisma and character.
I am incredibly fortunate to have these students in my life! I am looking forward to giving back to them as much as they bring to my life daily.
My Project
My students are ready and eager to get their rock band into full swing! They are rocking out to the classics on keyboards and ukuleles, but, those don't really rock as hard as they want to.
Help them conquer these classics!
We need one more electric guitar and amp and one more electric bass and amp. In addition we need two full drum sets and a couple of microphones for our singers. Then we'll be all set to jam out! Rock back is taught to middle school students in class but there is also an opportunity to have a rock band group once we have the instruments. Thank you for your support!
