It is an honor to have big companies donate this much to us! I think that this is the most greatest opporotunity for me and the students. It is an honor to have big companies donate this much to us!

Our parents are amazing! Our program is quite rigorous and does indeed ask a lot of parents, who oftentimes are working multiple jobs to make ends meet. But I'm certain the investment of time and energy will be well worth it. This morning the Georgia Department of Education pegged the high school graduation for Atlanta Public Schools at a troubling 52%. We must keep our kids engaged in music and arts, as this will take them right to the top! It was a joy having Peter visit the program. He truly is an amazing teacher and performer. We look forward to having him return! Thank you for your support! Best, Dantes Dear Mrs. Povey,

Particularly as Peter is my son and I am emailing you from England. Seeing the photos of the small children with their violins brought back many memories for my husband and I. We still have his 1/16th violin and 1/8 violin. It's really important that children get lots of support from their parents if they want to continue playing and learning about music. All the best Marian Hi
