Ms. Fujitani from Aiea HI is requesting supplies through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Part two: It's All about the Bass: The Tuba Section!

My students need tuba stands. This will allow students to be able to hold this large, but most important instrument in the band correctly.

My Students

"Music can change the world because it can change people." - Bono. Music is not only an art, it is a way of living.

My students are always excited to come into class, no matter what type of day they are having.

With the stress of standardized testing, these students are resilient in being the best that they can be during their band class. Though we are far away from the urban area of our state, this does not stop me or my students to be able to succeed at our job: making music!

My Project

My students are very small in stature but very eager to learn their instruments. The tuba is big and even with accommodations of giving them a partial size tuba, it is still difficult for the students to be able to hold the instrument correctly without putting strain on their bodies.

Our tuba stands are broken and adjust to one size only!

I would like to have working tuba stands that are able to accommodate to students of all sizes. These tuba stands that I found are not only adjustable but they are also portable, allowing either me or my students to carry them along with other equipment.
