FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Barron's classroom raised $457
This project is fully funded
My Project
A Title I school, this does not stop my students from being energetic and outgoing. Many of them made the highest score in the school on their state exams. After a successful year of singing last year, my students came ready to sing more advance music for their festivals. As a result, they requested more cultural songs this school year. To support them in their efforts most cultural songs require a drum. The song Baba Yetu is an energetic cultural song that will teach them about rhythm, culture, and loving one another.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
