Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

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.

My Project

Most of our students have wanted to perform live outside of the classroom, however, some hurdles need to be overcome to make that happen. With a few more musical items these hurdles can be eliminated and make these live music concerts happen!

It takes more than just practice and time.

It takes patience from everyone involved to make a concert happen not just at a school but anywhere. With my experience as a performing musician, I can teach my students what it takes to make it happen. Thank you for your help and contribution to getting this music started!
