Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Students

My music students are dedicated, energetic, and hardworking learners! They love playing music and are always excited to come to class.

Many students use their personal time before and/or after school to take advantage of extra help with their music.

Over the past three years, our band and orchestra programs have grown immensely. We have many students committed to making their music classes the best they can be. Over 80% of our students are eligible for free or reduced-price lunches, and we are unable to raise the funds to improve the music program on our own.

My Project

Many of our orchestra instruments are falling apart on a near-daily basis. Some of my orchestra students even share their instruments with up to three other people. Since our program is growing, more students keep using the instruments and equipment without the funds to properly maintain and replace needed items.

Through this project, we would like to be able to give as many students their own rosin that they can keep in their instrument case.

Rosin specifically, helps make the orchestra bows make sound. Without rosin, no one would be able to play their instrument with the bow! It is paramount that my students have the materials needed to set them up for success in my music class.
