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

My students are amazing. They are very talented and love to be in music class. I have a very big class and not enough drums and rhythm instruments for every student. This project would be helpful in allowing all my students to get the instruments needed for a very successful music lesson.

Our students are eager to express themselves with music, creative expression and improvisation.

They have found what ignites the soul, the beauty of musical sound. Music creates a sense of belonging, teamwork and a strong foundation for growth to assist the creative mind. We are building aesthetic experiences, and exploring musical avenues for the inspired ones.
