Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

This classroom is for a String Orchestra Program in Miami. My goal for this project is for my students to have pencils for writing in their music and a fresh and a clean looking classroom for them to thrive. I would also really appreciate a new printer as our current one is no longer working. I use the printer often such as for printing student compositions as they compose their own music! Students know how to write melodies and harmonize them! I would like to be able to print and share in student compositions as well as print any other music they need. I also often print digitally purchased music essays as it saves money on shipping. My students are so creative and hard working musicians. I want to help them thrive in their environment and not limit them.
