My Students

Music is a large part of our school culture, and our program is expanding each year. We have many parents and students who use their own resources and time to benefit the arts at our school.

Our Band program is active and offers many varied courses.

Whether it is Symphonic Band, Orchestra, Jazz Band, or Jazz Combo, many students are benefiting from our musical growth. We hope to continue the trend and would love to bring our program to as many students as possible.

My Project

My name is Jess B. and, for my senior project, I am funding an upright bass to be used in our Symphonic Band and our Jazz Band. Students have expressed the desire to learn and play the upright bass but do not necessarily have the money or space to own one.

I want to show current and future students that you can do anything you put your mind to, no matter the challenge.

By having a school bass, our music program will grow tremendously and students will have the opportunity to learn how to play the upright bass if they do so desire.

Thank you for your contributions. They mean a lot to me and my school.
