My Students

In my short time at Midwood High School, the students have amazed me with their eager attitudes, hunger for music, and willingness to try anything. I was aware of the great legacy the school already has but know that music and the arts haven't been funded the way they used to be. The school is a Title 1 funded school, which means that over two-thirds of the students come from a low income household. Even so, the students have already made leaps and bounds in their playing, and their most recent concert was considered their best in years!

My students do the most amazing things with the least amazing instruments.

The instruments are old, some are broken, some even barely work. Yet, my kids perform level 3-5 music and attend festivals and parades. Even beyond that, they aid the local elementary schools with private tutoring and middle school prep. This band program truly is a family and these students make it what it is. They are truly amazing and deserve the help that you would be able to provide.

My Project

I am teaching at a very emerging music program. Even since September, it has grown immensely. We are now doubling our class sizes and have an extremely long wait-list for the medium and advanced band classes! This expansion is so great that I have now been invited to make an orchestra pit for the musical this year.

We need a bunch of Latin Percussion instruments to fill out our rhythm section!

Each player in this section has a huge responsibility and the majority of the music in the show is Latin, so they never get a break. Even with the difficulty it poses the player, because of the necessity of this instrument, we can now play more difficult and exciting music!
