Help me give my students the opportunity to play excellent quality instruments! This bass guitar and hi-hat will round out our modern band program.
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Castine's classroom raised $633

My Project
In music class, students are engaged in making music they like, with instruments that are current and exciting! Using keyboards, guitars, and drums, we create a classroom full of excitement and experimentation.
Having quality instruments available for students lights up their experience of music-making.
Our drum set is missing the hi-hat and cymbals, and many students would like to try playing bass guitar on the choir pieces we perform.
I hope you can see how exciting it would be to add these instruments to our music classroom. Thank you for reading this project!
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
