My students are constantly surprising me with their open mindedness.
My students attend New York City public school and mainly reside in Brooklyn.
We are part of a NYC Outward Bound School. We use the EL Education model, which has its roots in Outward Bound. We are a diverse and respectful community committed to developing students and staff who are kind, open-minded, persistent, responsible, and courageous. With support from peers, staff, families and school partners, students engage in challenging academic and social experiences that prepare them for college level learning and full participation in civic life. Students learn to apply their intellect and effort to benefit themselves and their community.
My Project
Help bring our music room to life again! Our music room is such a special space for many of our students who want to grow their expertise and connection to art. Help us replenish her materials so that more kids can learn the new skill of playing the guitar!
After spending so many months trying to learn music online, we can all use some more hands on learning, and these new instruments will let Christine give the joy of music to more of her students!
Our middle and high school music classes will use these guitars in their band unit to learn a new and important skill!
More than half of students from low‑income households
