My Project

Help put my students on stage with this collection of music! Each song book and score is filled with music that will fit perfectly on the stage.

Every student should have hundreds of opportunities to perform, but we need more performance ready scores to help us move from classroom singing to stage performance!

Support my plan to make performances around the building a regular and joyful event. Help my students become polished, excited, generous performers for staff and students every week. These books will be the backbone of a school culture shift toward performance excellence.
