My Students

My middle school students are kind, creative, and super excited to make music! They work collaboratively and really push each other to do their best. They're hilarious, brave, and so self-aware. I'm really proud of my students and who they are.

My Project

Orchestra students are there to make music. These materials will help keep the orchestra room tidy and organized to allow for a more efficient, musical class. Students will have easy access to labeled method books, rosin, cleaning cloths, and other accessories. Extra strings will be clearly labeled in drawers for quick fixes in class so more learning can take place and less searching for the right materials.

These items will help the students work on their own organization skills, ensure they always have access to materials they need, and focus on the music making.
