My Project
I have some of the greatest students. They work extremely hard and achieve many great things.
Our music room is missing some items that would be highly beneficial to my students.
We have the smallest sound system that does not do justice to the great music we listen to and study. These JBL speakers and subwoofer would dramatically change their listening experience. They would hear details that they never knew existed. The stands would help position these speakers in the optimal position for our room and the cables and bluetooth controller would give me easy connection to the system from anywhere in the room.
In addition, we are missing a few percussion instruments that would expand our ability to access more styles of music. The guiro, castanets, and claves would open the door to more latin inspired music.
Half of students from low‑income households
