Sheet Music at Our Fingertips

Help me give my students an Epson color printer for printing music materials.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Patton's classroom raised $260

This project is fully funded

My Project

Our students are motivated to learn in music class. There is no printer that teachers can access in this school.

A printer in the music classroom will allow for easy and immediate printing of sheet music and worksheets.

Sometimes the class is left hanging if I forget to print something out at home the night before. If we had a printer in the music classroom, that dilemma would be eliminated and students would have what they need for music class. We are an equity-focused school, and everything donated is greatly appreciated.

Thank you for supporting this project request for this basic supply for our music classroom. Printing will be a lifesaver, so thanks again.
