The new reeds have helped our woodwind players get a clearer sound and respond more easily, which means we can spend rehearsal time improving tone, articulation, and musical expression instead of troubleshooting worn-out reeds.\r\n\r\nNext, we're building on this progress as we prepare for upcoming performances and continued skill growth. Students are working through a unit focused on tone quality, tuning, and ensemble listening, and they'll apply these skills in small-group sectionals and full-band rehearsals. We're also continuing our work on scales, articulation patterns, and dynamic contrast so students can perform with more control and musicality. Because of you, we're able to focus less on missing or damaged supplies and more on helping students become strong, independent musicians.","fullyFundedDate":1542677062799,"projectUrl":"project/reed-a-lot/3422575/","projectTitle":"Reed a Lot","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Byrdsong","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp2034323_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1451538370311","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/msbyrdsong"},{"teacherId":2034323,"projectId":3114369,"letterContent":"Since receiving funding for reeds, my clarinet and saxophone students have experienced a noticeable difference in both their playing and their confidence. Having consistent access to quality reeds has removed one of the biggest obstacles to their growth. Students no longer have to struggle with cracked or worn-out reeds, which often caused frustration and held them back musically.\r\n\r\nNow, they are able to produce a clearer tone, practice longer without interruption, and focus on developing proper technique. The reliability of having multiple reeds to rotate has also helped them learn the importance of good maintenance habits. Most importantly, students feel supported and encouraged knowing they have the tools they need to succeed. This investment has not only improved the overall sound of our ensembles, but it has also created a stronger sense of pride and motivation among our young musicians.","fullyFundedDate":1522187377259,"projectUrl":"project/welcome-to-reed-ville/3114369/","projectTitle":"Welcome to Reed-Ville","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Byrdsong","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp2034323_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1451538370311","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/msbyrdsong"},{"teacherId":2034323,"projectId":3106902,"letterContent":"Since receiving the BoPep finger and thumb guides, I've noticed a significant improvement in my flute students' playing and confidence. Students are able to find and maintain the correct hand position much more easily, which has led to better tone, improved finger coordination, and fewer technical frustrations during class. What once slowed them down—awkward hand placement or tension—is no longer a barrier to progress.\r\n\r\nThese simple yet powerful tools have created a more supportive learning environment where beginning flutists can focus on making music instead of struggling with posture and grip. As a result, my class is moving forward faster, with students demonstrating greater independence and pride in their growth. The investment is already paying off in stronger musicianship and a smoother path for their continued success.","fullyFundedDate":1522186932049,"projectUrl":"project/whats-your-position/3106902/","projectTitle":"What's Your Position?","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Byrdsong","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp2034323_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1451538370311","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/msbyrdsong"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_49354","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":241,"numTeachers":26,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":96,"percentWhite":0,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":3,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"6 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"9.3:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":59.3,"schoolId":49354,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Price Middle School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Price Middle School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/georgia/atlanta-public-schools/price-middle-school/49354"}
