The resources that you have provided for us have really changed our rehearsal for the better in so many ways, and we are all extremely grateful for your support.\r\n\r\nBecause everything is color-coded in my class to access books and equipment easily, the very colorful carts make it so much easier for them to grab sheet music without having to ask me for it, saving on so much time. The shelves in the instrument room are sooooo much more accessible, and because everything is so organized, my students no longer have to move things around to get access to their instrument, specifically percussion equipment. In addition, there is room for more equipment as our program continues to grow. The cart makes it so much easier for me to have all of the instruments that I use every single day at my fingertips. The ladder has made it possible to decorate with the self-assessments, rules, goals, and more on a higher level than we had before, which, since the classroom is so big, means that more students will be able to see everything easily. The cup organizer makes it easy for the students to grab what they need without having to ask me for it.\r\n\r\nWith all of this equipment, we are able to save so much time, which allows us to rehearse and play more. Thank you so much for your generosity--my students and I appreciate it tremendously.","fullyFundedDate":1755723552189,"projectUrl":"project/organization-and-self-sufficiency-is-key/9422737/","projectTitle":"Organization and Self-Sufficiency is Key to Maximizing Efficient Band Rehearsal","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Cruz-Iasiello","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp7739023_orig.jpg?crop=496,496,x146,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1724817124706","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/cruz-iasiello"},{"teacherId":7739023,"projectId":9200708,"letterContent":"Once again, thank you so very much for your kind and generous donation to our band students here at Long Island City High School. We appreciate it tremendously. \r\n\r\nAs it turns out, a lot of what we originally asked for was unavailable, so we ordered instrument stands, about which the students are so incredibly excited, especially the students who play larger instruments like the Euphoniums and the tubas. We were able to order enough for every member of our Concert band, and now it is much easier to ensure the instruments are safe when not in our students' hands (like when they need to step out of the room). They feel so professional, and as the concert band students gig a LOT for the school, it really does make it easier to keep the instruments safe.\r\n\r\nUnfortunately, the rest of the supplies that we asked for have been held up in transit for over a month. I have been tracking the box and it has been sitting at a UPS facility since September 9, 2025. I know that the minute the students receive access to those supplies, they are going to be so excited. This includes things like reeds and marching lyres, practice tips for the drumsticks, and so much more. I am so sad that this much needed equipment is sitting out there and not able to be used, but the minute we receive it, I will send an update.\r\n\r\nThank you again from the bottom of our hearts. You are truly so kind, thoughtful, and generous, and we really appreciate your support.","fullyFundedDate":1752586597062,"projectUrl":"project/musical-supplies-to-keep-aspiring-young/9200708/","projectTitle":"Musical Supplies to Keep Aspiring Young Musicians Playing!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Cruz-Iasiello","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp7739023_orig.jpg?crop=496,496,x146,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1724817124706","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/cruz-iasiello"},{"teacherId":7739023,"projectId":9034783,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for supplying my classroom with the replacement air filters that we needed in order to clean our air and reduce the effects of breathing dirty air.

Especially as spring is upon us, many of my students suffer from seasonal allergies, and the air purifiers will help us to have a cleaner, healthier environment. In order to perform at our highest caliber, we need to breathe deeply, and knowing that the air that we are breathing is clean will ease some minds, and allow us to play at our best.\r\n\r\nThank you so very much for your donation.

This printer has changed our classroom forever!!!! \r\n\r\nIn the past, students always had to wait a day for their music if they needed a new copy. It is soooo much easier to make copies immediately when the students need it. We are also finding it so much easier to print out their work. In addition, it is so much easier to print out the music that we have created, whether it's their own music, or the music helpers I develop to make learning music easier. Finally, their beautiful opera projects have also been printed out in color and displayed on the bulletin boards. Enclosed, you will see the pictures of all of this--it's so exciting!\r\n\r\nWe are deeply, deeply grateful for your kindness and generosity.
