Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Students
Our music department is booming - we're at a point where all of our classes are literally overflowing with a diversity of students. Students range from complete beginners with no previous experience, to students playing since a young age, to those in top honors ensembles.
Regardless of experience, what makes our music students stand out is their hunger and thirst for new experiences.
Students can choose from a variety of classes including: Keyboard, Guitar, Beginning Band, Beginning Strings, Advanced Band (Marching and Concert Band), Percussion Ensemble, Mariachi, Chorus, Chamber Choir, and AP Music Theory. Other extra-curricular groups include: Pep Band and Jazz Ensemble.
My Project
We have been very successful in fulfilling Parts 1 & 2 of this project, and now Part 3 is a bit more specialized to address our newest class - Mariachi!
Without guitar stand racks, the guitars have no way of properly being stored.
Our music room currently accommodates FIVE different music classes, each with different equipment and instruments. There is way too much risk for instruments to get damaged from all the movement if there is not a set place for them to 'live'. We've been creative in storing our instruments so far, but we want to ensure the longevity of our instruments and our classes!
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
