  • Tune the Orchestra! - Buy Tuners for the LN Orchestras

    Funded Apr 2, 2024

    Thank you again for your generous donations toward the Lawrence North High School orchestra program. The students were very excited and gracious when they saw the new tuners on their music stands.

    We have been using the tuners daily in class and bringing them to our judged assessment earlier this month. Having the tuners has really helped students gain some independence and confidence in their tuning skills.

    We are humbled by the generosity you gave us and in such a short time. We will think of you as we use these resources every day.”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Metzger

  • Organize the Orchestra!

    Funded Aug 2, 2023

    Thank you so much for your donations toward my Organize the Orchestra DonorsChoose. Your generosity has allowed for a lot of reorganizing and keeping students prepared for class, as well as keeping materials organized.

    The label maker has been a LIFE SAVER for reorganizing the music library. I've used the label maker to relabel folders and put new labels on new sheet music. I've also been able to label new method books to distribute to students. I've also labeled the instrument lockers with students' names and which ones are for school instruments. This has made my life and the students' lives so much easier.

    The pencils are also a staple item in any classroom. These are being used to be attached to music stands so students always have a pencil ready to mark music or complete and worksheet.

    The blue organizing tray is helpful for carrying materials to the stage for performances, such as rock stops, rosin, extra shoulder rests, and tuners.

    Thank you again for your donation. I truly appreciate you.”

  • Orchestra Organization!

    Funded Aug 30, 2021

    We have received our organization materials from the DonorsChoose project! After assembling them, it's already made a big difference in our organization and space! Our table with the extra method books is clear and labeled. The blue color is also a nice touch to give a little extra color in the front of the room. The drawers will be wonderful for all of our accessories like rosin, cleaning cloths, shoulder rests, extra strings, and tools. It will help declutter the filing cabinets and make items easily accessible for both me and the students. I will be labeling the drawers with the new label maker to make sure there's no guessing where to find needed materials.

    The students were excited to see the new materials in the classroom. They thought it all looked wonderful and are happy to have the shelves and drawers in our space.

    We thank you deeply for your donations to make this project happen. We feel the love and support and appreciate you.”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Metzger

Orchestra students are there to make music. These materials will help keep the orchestra room tidy and organized to allow for a more efficient, musical class. Students will have easy access to labeled method books, rosin, cleaning cloths, and other accessories. Extra strings will be clearly labeled in drawers for quick fixes in class so more learning can take place and less searching for the right materials. These items will help the students work on their own organization skills, ensure they always have access to materials they need, and focus on the music making.
