As we become more secure and confident with the bow technique, we will be moving forward with learning new notes that make up the D Major Scale and our pieces for our beginner concerts.

These students are very dedicated to this opportunity. Having these instruments to offer, keeps the students motivated to come to school and exposed to another style of learning. \r\n\r\nHaving support from Donors Choose is such a gift to instrumental students. I would not have an instrument to offer with out the donation. When speaking to my students about how special it was to have these instruments, they felt special in return.
