CMS music teacher still seeking Donors Choose donations

Express button to donate now
And support responsible fundraising in public schools - CM


By Calen McKinney, Public Information Officer
Campbellsville Independent Schools

Campbellsville Middle School music teacher Jessica Floyd is still seeking donations to help purchase some instruments for her classroom. Jessica Floyd created a Donors Choose campaign in July to receive donations to buy ukuleles for CMS students.



As of Wednesday, November 9, 2016 there were 10 days left to donate to the project. After the campaign expires, if the project isn't fully funded, all donations will be returned to those who donated. The instruments will cost $872, and, as of Wednesday, November 9, $647 is still needed to fund the project. According to Floyd's Donors Choose page, her students need hands-on experiences to keep them interested in learning music, and ukuleles will do just that.

Floyd says she plans to use ukuleles to teach chord structure in folk and pop music. "I envision solo and group projects that will eventually push them beyond the basic chord structures and into learning melodies as well. It is my goal to empower students with the love of music and the joy of performing," she wrote on her page. The $872 goal for the Floyd's fundraising campaign will purchase 20 ukuleles.
