My Project

Playing instruments is an integral part of our curriculum, bringing joy, creativity, and invaluable learning experiences to our students. One of our most beloved instruments in the classroom is the ukulele. Its cheerful tones and ease of play make it a favorite among students of all ages. My students absolutely love playing the ukulele!

However, as our ukulele program continues to grow, so does the need for maintenance and supplies.

Currently, we are in need of new strings to keep our ukuleles in top condition and ensure that every student has the opportunity to learn and create beautiful music.
