My Students

The students at my school are enthusiastic about learning! They come to school every day prepared to learn as much as possible about every topic their teachers present to them. Staying home has NOT stopped our learning! We are taking it on one day at a time and making music together every week.

The students love their specials: music, art, library, and P.E.

The students take full advantage of using their creative abilities throughout their day, but specials time is an excellent opportunity to create with the many resources available to them! Music class is the heartbeat of the school!

My Project

We have been so lucky to receive two new xylophones in our classroom in the past years for our instrumentation, and we are so excited to play them, but we are lacking in the stands to raise them!

We need to get our new xylophones off the ground so the kids can reach them quickly and ensure they do not get broken or harmed.

These are the best stands that money can buy, and they will hold them for many years to come! Our musicians have loved playing these instruments since returning to in-person learning.

Thank you so much for considering our project! Music education is so vital to our community and school!
