My Project

Our music students are very diverse! They have a wide variety of music preference when it comes to music listening styles and instrument preference. Combined, our music classes, band classes and chorus classes have unique students who are in both traditional and non traditional music instruction.

Modern band is becoming more prevalent in music education, and many of our students play non traditional instruments!

Our music department has a need for extra amplifiers and guitar cords to help students using these instruments be heard.

Guitar amps and cords used to be used the most for band rehearsals and performances but are now used in the general music classroom and chorus with the addition of modern band education.
