Reaching All Ears!

Help me give my students the chance to hear music in large settings! This speaker would allow students to listen to music in class, in the gym, during parties and events, as well as when they perform!

My Students

Courageous, Creative, and Caring! Our students strive to create a community supported by these three core characteristics. Using musical examples, writing exercises, and discussion based learning, I strive to provide students with a musical foundation that will also them a life time. Each students k-5 experiences and learns to develop a strong foundation of understanding and critical thinking through the arts, and with your help, we can make that foundation even stronger!

My Project

Having a speaker of this size would be tremendous for our school! It would allow us to be able to share music in large and small settings, such as in the gym, auditorium and lunch room. It would help with students who are engaging in critical listening projects, as well aid performances for all ages in our school. It would help us during large scale events, assemblies, and all the fun large group activities we hope to reintroduce to our school soon! Your support would mean everything to me and our school!
