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

I hope this new equipment will go to replace old and broken equipment that I do not have the funds to replace at the moment. This project will also go to my student’s experience in the classroom with both quality of life items and new instruments to interact with! When students are working on new music with instruments they are forced to put their music various places all over the room that are not visible just to be able to take a quick glance at their music. New music stands will go to fixing that, new drumsticks to replace old broken ones, folders for my burgeoning choir that hold loose sheets of music. And a new cajon for students to explore and use!
