My Students

I work with students that have a love for music. They enjoy singing, dancing and rapping. I currently service 2nd-5th grade student.

The students that I service are students that are eager, enthusiastic and willing to prove that they can be better than the limitations place before them.

A school is a great place that meets their needs but there isn't any funding for the Music department as many budget cuts are happening all over the United States but the Arts always gets the hardest hit. The need is so great but I don't have the funding to give all that they need to make them Great and give them Student Life Essentials that will last a life time.

My Project

It would be of great service to my students to make music a lively and up beat place to make their environment more entertaining and meaningful. I want to give them the opportunity to experience what they have witness streaming through the media. They see their favorite artist using a microphone, appearing cool and they want that.

I can vision my student in the classroom as well on stage with their microphone in their hands just taking life to another level, being expressive and unbelievable talents coming out.

I want the parents to see the imaginable talents just shinning through this community.
