My Project

Hello everyone! I am seeking to purchase percussion materials to help expand the options for my percussion students as the band program continues to grow and expand. Additionally, I am seeking a new baritone saxophone mouthpiece for my saxophonists.

Currently, we are in need of a wider variety of percussion equipment and instruments to meet the growing needs of our ensembles and the musical repertoire they perform.

My kids are enthusiastic, motivated, and desire to learn and grow, exploring the exciting world of percussion. This project helps my students achieve their goals.
