Let Us Have More Music!
Funded Dec 4, 2024I'm extremely excited that your contributions helped make this one happen! This new synthesizer is going to make a huge difference in our performances! The condenser microphone is going to make recording music so much easier, and it's all thanks to you. Thank you so much for thinking of us, and helping us make the music!”
With gratitude,

This classroom project was brought to life by The DonorsChoose Community and 10 other donors.Let Them Have Music!
Funded Aug 31, 2024Your contribution had an immediate positive impact on our class and campus culture. We appreciate you and your generosity. Your actions made our class and club able to increase our impact on campus and more easily manage full campus events.
Shortly after the day we received the acoustic guitars we began practicing for our first ever Hispanic Heritage festival concert. With those additional guitars, the students were able to collaborate more at times when my classroom was occupied or being used by a different group practicing. I have somehow adopted the small area between the back entrance doors as a sort of practice space, and the day after the donation's arrival, I walked into the school with a welcome sound of live guitar music. Since then, those guitars have been used frequently, for both informal practices and full-scale performances.
Music events at our campus are different than traditional high schools. We do not have the facilities for a symphonic or marching band, or any type of orchestra, so we typically make do with what we have. The guitars and lights that you contributed to have been a true blessing. The acoustic sound was perfect for our Hispanic Heritage concert, and our Homecoming tail-gate event. The lights were great for our Halloween concert and costume competition and for multiple karaoke events. Again, your contribution has truly helped out, and your generosity has made our campus a better place.”
