My Students

Since I graduated from CHS in 2012, there have been 4 different program directors. The students who stayed have persevered and remained dedicated to their craft despite the turnover in leadership.

They are a passionate, hard-working and deeply community oriented group of individuals from all walks of life.

I want nothing more then to help them develop and flourish as people and musicians, but I need your help to give our students the tools to fulfill their dreams and goals.

My Project

Throughout the average school year, CHS Band Students will perform at at least four school-based concerts, with our Jazz and Pep Band members getting out in the community for an additional 6-8 performances! That's a lot of traveling, packing, stashing, and thrashing!

My students handle 20-30 sets of sheet music each year, plus their chorale and methods books, and their folders are responsible for keeping everything neat and clean.

Unfortunately, Our current set of folders has seen better years, and are ready to retire! Help us replace our old set of folders so we can keep the Chugiak Bands organized and mobilized!
