My Students
To begin with, I love teaching all my students. They are bright, aspiring students that encourage me to try new things and teaching techniques every day. I am fairly young in my teaching career. This school has taught me so much in a little amount of time. I will forever cherish my time with these students.
We grow together so not only am I teaching them, I am learning as well.
My students span from the ages of 12-18, as well as a few 8 and 9-year-olds. The band is growing and we want to keep it that way even though the county is small and money is limited. Even with this, my students' love for learning and music is rich. I want to show them that music is more than just organized sounds in time. Music is what feelings sound like. Be expressive. I also have many students now interested in making and recording their own music. How wonderful is that! I also work with my students to develop their sounds and songs in a recording setting. As well as playing and learning new instruments.
My Project
The plan is to get all needed equipment before students return in the spring for Music Production Class. The school has already made requests for the textbooks, all the students need now are the tools for hands on instruction and learning.
The purpose of this project is to continue the musical development of the students through hands on opportunity and instruction in the music media/industry manner.
Many students have expressed interest in the music, media and film industry and need an outlet and opportunity to study and develop the skills needed to make their dreams a reality.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
