My Students
We are a band on the verge of greatness, but we need your help! We have 238 students from two middle schools and a high school in our band program. Four years ago, our marching band had only 46 members, but now...we boast 78! However, our instruments are all very old, and we are in a low-income area where many students have to borrow a school instrument. We are quickly running out of instruments! Our hope is for funding to help us finish this year strong and purchase new instruments and equipment that will help us for the next 15+ years! Students cannot feel successful on an instrument or equipment that is holding them back, so we hope you will help us!
My Project
This is an incredible method/warm-up book that we can use at the high school and middle schools. It helps the students gain a better grasp of the basics of their instrument all while teaching them to listen to everyone else in the room. We are asking you to help us provide the students with a set of books - Foundations for Superior Performance.
Many Super-Successful programs use this book!
Some start this book and finish it in middle school. Others use it all through high school years. We plan on using it for all of our band students in both!
This book helps with scales, long tones, lip slurs and other dexterities of their instrument. We appreciate everything you all have given to our program. We wouldn't be as successful without you!
More than a third of students from low‑income households
