it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
We are so excited for a new year of music making and want to make this school year the most amazing ever. We are so proud to offer a new class (Steel Drums) for our instrumental students this year! Students will use the two steel drums in this project in class for rehearsals and performances. The three bands and two Orchestra classes that I teach will also benefit greatly from this project. For the band classes, this project includes books for all students, mouthpieces and ligatures for our clarinet players as well as reeds for all the woodwinds. Students will use these supplies in rehearsals and performances. We also included supplies like cables, straps and strings to keep our guitar players in the Jazz Band sounding great. For our string players, we included strings, shoulder rests, bows, and books that they will use in class and performing in the community. We are so excited that our orchestra classes continue to grow every year.
As an arts academy, one of the most important aspects of our school is our Instrumental Music program.
We take great pride in encouraging all students to be exposed to music. This is evident in our foundation classes and plethora of music classes that we offer. We could not be successful without your support. Thank you.
