Philosophy
ENCOURAGE. We believe that the arts can be used to build self-esteem and confidence. We are committed to challenging our students in healthy ways and encouraging them to discover their self-worth.
INSPIRE. We believe that if you can encourage a student, you will also be able to inspire the student. We take great pride in teaching music but it's just a tool to us. Honesty, integrity, and honor are a few values at the core of who we are and we want to be able to inspire our students to share the same.
MOTIVATE. We believe that it takes inspiration to motivate people. Our students are naturally motivated towards excellence in our program. We believe that learning excellence in one area of life will spill over into other areas such as school and community service. We want to motivate students towards excellence in life and leadership.
"By believing in me, you made me believe in myself. Thank you!" - Nic (student)
MEANING. Encouraging, inspiring, and motivating our students is what gives our program meaning. We further invest in our students by giving them opportunities to invest in our program by empowering them to teach other students, administrate parts of their classes, participate in fundraising, and help plan and coordinate in events.
SIGNIFICANCE. We don't just teach the drums. We are changing lives. That is what gives our program significance. Knowing this we actively seek the support of the community to provide scholarship opportunities for those would normally be unable to participate in our program.
"Thank you for giving my kids an opportunity they otherwise wouldn't have!" - Gena (parent)
