My Students

I want my student to love their experience with guitar class. Guitar can open them up to a whole new word of music and enrich their lives.

They are students that for the most part have never had music education before.

They are nice kids that deserve to have a strong music education. We are a small start up performing arts high school serving underprivileged working class students from the area.

My Project

These cases will help protect the guitars and allow the students to take them home to practice. Right now we have a few broken boxes that are falling apart. Having new cases for the guitars will help make the students feel more proud of their craft and motivate them to practice.

Music can make a huge difference in the lives of our students here at school.

Having guitar cases will give them more pride in their learning, help protect the guitars from damage, and allow the students to take the instruments home to practice. Thank you!
