By giving them constant access to new and exciting stories, you have opened doors to new worlds and possibilities. Thank you again for believing in my students and supporting our classroom.

We have just started for this school year and are in the process of adding new first year students. Our schools are changing and the ability to do the job correctly with it. I teach lessons at both of my elementary schools on stage in the gym. \r\nMy area is constantly being used by others. So, the locking cabinet is a great help and will be a nice place for my small instruments and accessories. The stools are welcome as well. Especially if we are lucky enough to have a student on string bass! I am excited to be adding many new kids. I estimate at least 65 kids at each school. \r\nLast year we ended the year with pieces of instruments damaged, so I was very happy to receive the new clarinet mouthpieces and ligatures. Thank you so much!\r\nAgain, I really do appreciate everything you do for the kids and the program. I hope to have a successful year and another great performance time.
