Support Mrs. Cruz-Iasiello's classroom with a gift that fosters learning.
I teach in an inner-city school where 95% of the students have not had the opportunity to play instruments before joining my class. Unfortunately, all of my beginning band students are currently in remote learning, which makes teaching wind instruments from scratch utterly impossible. They spent all of the fall semester learning how to read, write, listen and analyze music.
These drumsticks and drumpads will give my students the opportunity to become working musicians, and be able to apply all the theory they have learned the past semester into practice.
