My Project

As we continue to teach and grow, we are still finding that we are in need of items that we continue to fall short of providing. We are constantly growing in number and the interest in music is also growing with new enthusiastic students who thirst for a new opportunity to learn an instrument and obtain an additional chance to pursue their passion beyond high school.

We are teaching our students to "Stand on Business" as they join our class and we need these items(drum sticks, mallets, etc.) to help us to succeed.
