My Project

Hello! I teach Kindergarten through eighth grade music classes in small town Carthage, IL. I have band, choir, and all the primary school kids under my direction every day. I am the only director and do not have a budget to rely on for classroom supplies.

Something we have sorely been needing is a quality metronome.

I am wanting to get a Dr. Beat metronome to help keep my students in time. This device is what so many band directors trust to keep a steady beat in their classrooms and on the marching band field. I am the feeder program for the high school marching band and would love to see my students be able to practice and hone their skills before graduating eighth grade. Please consider donating to help our class out.
