My action project involves me becoming a visible advocate and supporter of LAUSD’s Arts Branch and music programs throughout the district. My project activities include me actively engaging teachers, students, district officials, arts partners, funders and community members in and around LAUSD for the sake of increasing music programs throughout the district this school year and also laying the groundwork for more growth in the coming years. Throughout the project, my activities include meetings with Rory Pullens, the Arts Executive for LAUSD and Christopher Rodriguez, the Music Supervisor for LAUSD, building partnerships and alliances with other music non-profits who have a vested interest in the district, schools and students of LA County, creating and delivering professional development sessions for LAUSD teachers, offering mentorship and feedback to newly trained Modern Band teachers, receiving instrument donations from private funders and distributing them to schools, creating performance opportunities for LAUSD music students, providing active support for events planned by LAUSD’s Art branch, and working directly with the Arts branch on district priorities and goals for the coming year.
