As a roving music teacher, not having my own separate classroom means fitting into tight spaces. Sharing spaces with the whole school community makes for a chaotic auditorium stage. There are paper mache trees, old boxes full of ancient cumulative files, and a pile of lost sweaters. There are 35 music stands that don't have a place to be stored other than behind the curtains and in the way of the storage cabinets. By having music stand storage carts, we can better organize our materials and move them out of the way in case the space is needed for another event. This will help organize the chaos of a school auditorium.
