  • Music in the Hands of All Students!

    Funded Oct 13, 2024

    I am writing to express my heartfelt gratitude for your generous support in funding the purchase of recorder instruments for our music program. Your contribution has made a significant impact on our students, providing them with the tools they need to explore the world of music. With these recorders, students of all ages will have the opportunity to learn how to read, write, compose, and perform music, elevating their musical education to a whole new level.

    Thanks to your kindness, our students are now able to engage in hands-on learning experiences that foster creativity and a deeper understanding of music. The joy and excitement on their faces as they play their new instruments is truly priceless. We are incredibly grateful for your support and for helping us inspire the next generation of musicians. Thank you once again for making a difference in our students' lives”

    With gratitude,

    Mr. Heffernan

    Thank you all so much for your generosity!

  • Create an Inspiring Music Classroom!

    Funded Jan 3, 2022

    Thank you so much for your generous donation to our school's music room! Our students can now share in great musical experiences in a classroom, where they can sit comfortable and learn deeply about all kinds of music. Students love the rug, and love to pick out their favorite leaf to sit on!

    One project we have done in kindergarten is moving to a steady beat, and jumping from leaf to leaf has become a fan favorite activity for our students! We are able to add instruments, songs, and all different fun dance moves to this activity, and we are so thankful for your help to creating this creative and inspiring space.”

    With gratitude,

    Mr. Heffernan

This classroom carpet will help create an inviting, inspiring and comforting space for children to learn music! Allowing students find a place (leaf) that they can learn freely, be creative, and explore all kinds of art and culture is so important to me and my mission as an educator! Please help support the growth of my school, our music/performing arts department, and the young minds of many future musicians! Your generosity will go a long way in helping every student in my school learn, grow, and love music in their own unique way!
