My Project

We have many performances using our xylophones in music class. Our instruments sit on large tables in the music room and when needed for performances, we move large tables to set them on the stage. Our music class is in need of stands to allow students to play standing up and be seen by the audience. This will make moving instruments a lot easier if they are on their own stands and will take up less space in the music room to allow for movement activities. This makes a safer environment.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
