My Project

My classroom has several broken and irrepairable music stands that need to desperately be replaced. We simply do not have enough for all of the students to be able to see their music during rehearsals. Students will have easier access and better viewing capabilities if we have more music stands, this will make our rehearsals more effecient and productive.

These music stands will get used by around 70 students everyday in my classroom throughout the school year.

Our band students are heros of the school. They support all of the other organizations by participating in pep rallies, concerts, parades, and pepping up our student sections at athletic events. Of course I must mention their hard work when supporting our school at local, state, and national honor band events.
