This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
My Project
At my school, the students zoned for this school do not have the opportunity to join chorus. I am not a fan of this, and have decided to build a choral program. With this in mind, due to the fact that there hasn't really been a choral program for these students before, there are no risers for these students to have and use for practicing and performing purposes to prepare them for high school and college level music. I'm starting a choral program for students who originally were not given the opportunity to join chorus, and we do not have risers. I would like to use these risers to teach these students proper concert performance etiquette, while also helping them to be able to become the best singers and performers they could be.
I believe that with a little bit of help and support, these students can thrive, and these risers would be the first step in that help and support!
